Man, it must have been very difficult to get yer last dime out of the tailpiece ;D. Maybe paper money was rolled up and stuffed down the tubular end, or you put a stick down long end and loaded other end with halves or silver dollars, and made a makeshift "black jack".......NGE

Interesting!!! Maybe its not a purse. Could it be a carring case of some type? Just trying to be objective.

I believe it is a pipe sleeve.

I agree.

I have a templer sword from my Grandfather, in a scabbard, and it's all stored in a nice sewn to fit cloth wrap...

I can see this "purse" holding a silver pipe holder to keep it protected.

hmm maybe

Darn strong maybe...think frogwizard is right on.

And the remark about it smelling like tobacco unless it is in Calif...is very insinuating and hurtful ;D

Why, hell yes, it should smell like wacky-tobaccy, especially if its from the Golden State. :thumbsup:
