How it was done at Charatan in 1945

[monbla256]

I found this old Pathe newsreel ( some of us remember these from Saturday afternoon matinees :twisted: ) that shows the making of Pre-Lane era Charatan pipes  and thought it was interesting in that it showed how much "free hand work" was done on production made standard shapes!! :twisted: :twisted:

Hah! By pure coincidence I'm smoking my favorite Charatan 20104 Canadian as I opened this! Thanks, 'bla! :cheers:

I've said on several occasions that I'm not interested in ever getting married again, however I would make an exception for either of those 2 ladies!

Man, did you see the shape of those bowls!!!
