    Hi forum,
    I picked this up in one of my goodwill adventures. :D I don't even know anybody who smokes a tobacco pipe anymore. :cigar: Before I bought it I realized one of the holders was broken off, not a huge deal but I still gotta fix it if I want to sell it. It says Sheriff on it and it looked 50's or 60's to me, so I thought what the hay?. Oh, and I do realize I may be stuck with it because maybe nobody buy's stuff like this anymore, but that's alright. :D Practically everything I buy is a gamble. ;)Any comments?

    I like it, and I think you are right about the age, it's reminds me of the ever popular horse/clock combinations of that era.
    There are collectors of tobacco related items, even by people who don't smoke, as well as people who collect cowboy/western.
    Cleaned up and repaired, I could see this on a gents dresser to hold change, keys or cufflinks.

    This would sell very quickly someplace like Provincetown. Really. This has a lot of appeal.

    Looks like a neat piece! I don't smoke or drink but that doesn't stop me from collecting cool tobacco or alcohol related pieces.
