    Do you wear a fedora while driving?

    Do you wear a fedora while driving?

    Flat caps are no problem, but I can't seem to get in or out of my car without knocking my hat off my head. Do you wear yours while driving or do you take it off? If you take it off, where do you put it?

    Thank you so much for all the info. It kind of confirms what I thought, the Kaywoodies and a few others are common pipes, the "novelty" ones are just that. Didn't really care about any $ value, just wanted to make sure that I kept the decent ones. I wouldn't want to try a junk pipe to start...

    And lastly, some tools. a camera-shaped lighter, a pipe cover, a british buttner, and I guess a tobacco pouch?

    I guess one of these would be used for crappy tobacco! The other one is difficult to read, but on the bottom it looks like it says Tesque Cherry, France.

    I am at a total loss on this one. All it says is Germany. Not sure if it's ivory or bone or what, but it is interesting. It's about 3 1/2 inches long overall.

    In going through my parent's estate, I have found several vintage pipes. I never knew my father smoked pipes, although I do recall him rolling cigarettes when I was very very young, but he had quit by the time i was 5 I think. And that was 60 years ago.
