    I stopped by the Scott Antique Show today and spent a pleasant hour walking around among things older than I – though I was careful to keep moving. The only thing I picked up was a funny-looking little pipe for $5. (see image)

    When I got it home, I found a little scrap of paper tucked inside the bowl, and being me, I unfolded it to see it anything was written on it. (See other image) What I found was
    “Just a pipe from over here for you, a sour(illegible) Ha Ha Love Father Sam (or maybe Dan)”

    This hardly looks like a valuable antique, but I am curious to find out when and where “Over here” was.

      I think it says souvenir! Like a message in a bottle almost.
