BTW:  Byron and I still have some copies of Volumes 2 & 3 of Historic Clay
Tobacco Pipe Studies for Sale.  I think Byron still has some of his slide
sets available also.  Get them from Byron if you can.  I am only a
middleman.  If I remember corretly, Vol.1 had a McDougall's price list with
a Home Rule pipe listed in it

Vol.2 is $6.75 and Vol.3 is $11.75 (prepaid)

In addition to the Lowell report another excellent
source on home rule pipes is:

Alexander, L.T.
1986    Clay Pipes with Irish Affiliations. Historic
Clay Tobacco Pipe Studies 3:69-75.

This series, edited and published by Byron Sudbury and
likely out of print, is usually accessible via
interlibrary loan. Alexander's work illustrates over a
dozen different "home rule" pipes as well as pipes
with other Irish national slogans.

Clay pipes with Irish slogans such as "home rule" or
"Land League" are possibly associated with Irish
Nationalist leader Charles Stewart Parnell's visit to
the U.S. in 1879, where he attempted to fuel interest
in nationalism among Irish factory workers.
