The Pipe Collector's Code
(from R.C.Hacker "Rare Smoke.The Ultimate
Guide to Pipe Collecting")
1.Always represent a pipe truthfully,including its faults as well as its attributes.
2.As far as practicable,try not to alter the original finish and stampings of a pipe,in order to preserve its integrity as a collectable.
3.Be tolerant of new collectors, and help them in any way that you can.
4.Share your knowledge and enthusiasm of pipe collecting with others.
5.Take pride in your collection,but do not flaunt it in an overbearing manner.
6.Never speak poorly of another collector's pipes.Remember,they are as precious to him as yours are to you.
7.Once you've agreed to a pipe transaction,honor it at all costs.
8.Treat every pipe collector as a member of your family,for that is what he is.
