Father's Day at 100: How It Began, Why Dad Gets Fewer Gifts

June 20, 2010

Did you know that Father's Day was 100 years old this year? No? Me either.

Here's a neat article from National Geographic

Father's Day at 100: How It Began, Why Dad Gets Fewer Gifts

That's me and my Dad on the right. Let's just pretend the flower's don't exist. OK? Happy Father's Day Dad, and Happy Father's Day to you too.

So, what's this all about?

I'm a huge fan of the Aristocob pipe and am always on the look-out for new and used pipes and new corn cob liners.

I decided that whenever I find one for sale on eBay or elsewhere on the web that I'd start to build a database of the items and the final price. You will see as I did, that the prices have very little to do with the pipe's value! Some very nice Aristocob pipes have been sold for less than $10, and some awful pipes have sold for more than $40!

If you see no final price listed it may be because it's an active listing, so click the link and feel free to bid. Good luck!
