From: ?????????????????????? (Bill Calame) Subject: posting from pipes page Our only local tobacconist recently closed his doors after being in business for over 25 years. The anti-smoking environment in Abilene, Texas and the oil bust finally took its toll. I was fortunate to buy all of his pipe making equipment and supplies. These supplies included hundreds of vulcanite stems of every size and style one might need. The vast majority of these are still in stamped and numbered bags as they were shipped by J. H. Lowe, Co. Though I plan to spend an increased amount of time making pipes as a hobby, I do not have a need for this many stems. I am willing to part with them for a very reasonable price. Contact Bill Calame at ?????????????????????? if you are interested or would like more information. Steve, thanks so much for this wonderful publication! It is an inspiration to my hobby.
