Canada patent Dunhill

[fishnbanjo]

While I do buy Dunhills they have to be somewhat special and this one is as it has a backstory as well.

Made during WW II it has the Canadian patent and from what I was able to find out was the Canadian patented Dunhill's were made by Blatter & Blatter.

Now if that isn't cool enough it has a black spot. While not made with the black spot there are stories that monied patrons of pubs were frowned upon during the war and the white spot of the Dunhill stood out so in order to enjoy a pint w/o being noticed the owner blackened the white spot.

Regardless of any of that this is a cracker of a smoker and is doing a fine job of keeping it smokey filled Dunhill Deluxe Navy Rolls.

Banjo, I really appreciate you sharing your pipe collection. Something I look forward to reading as do all the members within this forum I'm sure. You still have the PAD & TAD fever which there is no cure. Enjoy and be well



KEEP ON PUFFING!!!

I don't know what's better - the pipe or the story!
