This set of Silver and Ivory Lawrie bagpipes was purchased by Steve MacLeod in 2001 from a piper who'd been in a Shrine Band in Cincinnati.

The seller had bought the pipes from the Tartan Shop in Tipp City Ohio. 

The pipes are clearly hallmarked as British Sterling by Dalman and Narborough (D&N) in 1985.  The seller thought that date of close to the date of purchase, but did not have a receipt nor any written information about the ivory.  He had been assured that the ivory was completely legal.
