Description
I received this Murray era set as a gift in 1999. The tins are unopened, and have been stored in climate controlled spaces during the subsequent 25 years.
See "Photos" below for complete images.
Included Blends:
- Early Morning Pipe
- Nightcap
- My Mixture 965
- Standard Mixture Medium
- Royal Yacht
Confirmation Of Seals:
My understanding is that a new 50g tin of Dunhill pipe tobacco should weigh 115g - 118g. The following are the weights for these tins:
- Early Morning Pipe: 117.7g
- Nightcap: 118.8g
- My Mixture 965: 117.3g
- Standard Mixture Medium: 117.7g
- Royal Yacht: 117.1g
Each tin also passes the common shake and concavity tests / inspections.
The box is in good conditions with some signs of handling. The tabs on the lid are intact.
Why am I selling? I stopped smoking ~20 years ago, and if something happens to me, whomever handles my estate will likely let the set go to waste. I consider the auction to be an preemptive estate sale!

Pricing:
The starting bid is based on an offer I have for a direct sale via a different site. As such, there is no reserve.
I will answer questions as quickly as possible. I am usually available in the morning and evenings in the Pacific time zone.
The set will ship from Seattle, WA. USA
