About This Pipe
The year is 1920. Babe Ruth is traded by the Boston Red Sox to the New York Yankees for $125,000, the largest sum ever paid for a player at that time. Turkey gives up the Ottoman Empire and all non-Turkish areas. The first game of the Negro National League baseball is played in Indianapolis, Indiana, and this pipe was born. For nearly nine decades this pipe has been well cared for (it has its own custom carrying case) and the condition is flat out amazing. Why just own a pipe, when you can own a piece of history?!
