Description

This fascinating lot features a curated assortment of vintage and reproduction clay tobacco pipes, ranging from short-stemmed to long churchwarden-style pieces. Included is the reference book Clay Pipes: Their History & Varieties Found in N.Z. by K.G. Rusden, an essential guide for collectors and history buffs alike. The book documents regional finds, styles, and usage from archaeological contexts—making it the perfect pairing for the hands-on artifacts included.

Several of the pipes show age, wear, or soil residue consistent with excavation or vintage origin, while others are pristine examples, ideal for display or study. A must-have bundle for folk historians, reenactors, or collectors of early colonial and industrial-age ephemera.
