These were my grandfathers and I plan on smoking some of them and displaying the rest. I don't know much about pipes (besides how to smoke them) so any info about these would be very much appreciated by me and my family. #1 is my favorite but the stem is broken so I'm going to have to find a replacement.

Pipe #1 says "(Something Unreadable)ne Craft" and has a "C" under that.

Pipe #2 says "Estella Non Pareil" on the bowl and "Saqvinelli" on the stem.

Pipe #3 says "Ben Wade" "Spiral Sandb(Worn off)" and "Made in Denmark" on the bowl and has a crown on the stem.

Pipe #4 Says "ALPHA, HAND MADE"

Pipe #5 says "Danish Pride by Ben Wade", "Hand made in Denmark"

Pipe #6 says "Zenith HOLLAND" on the gold colored piece the stem inserts into.

Pipe #7 No Markings *EDIT After closer examination it says "genuine briar"

Pipe #8 says "Forecaster, Real Briar"

Pipe #9 says "Imported Briar"

Pipe #10 says "Genuine Briar"

Pipe #11 No markings *EDIT After closer examination it says "Yellow-Bole" and Something else I can't make out. There appears to the a "registered trademark symbol" as well.

Pipe #12 says "20th Century Imported Briar
