Trade pipes.
Handed out in taverns, made in molds in factories. They are quite old.
Here's some info on both. The white one is older than the other.

Clay Tobacco Pipes produced at Point Pleasant, Ohio
The one on the right is from Mogadore Ohio 1883-96. I dug over 18,000 factory rejects from 1969-82.
Pamplin, Point Pleasant and Mogadore shared molds & clay but i have never seen the top one made anywhere but Mogadore. That same type of pipe had advertising on them for different tobacco companies {Catlins, Catlins Old Style, Red Letter, Finzer} and they were included in pouches of tobacco. Search Akron cly Pipe Company for more info.
My wife and i dug a little over 400 of them in May of 1982 while on our honeymoon. Don't ever say i ain't romantic.
