Charley, my Don Carlos just to give you a perspective on size. Smoking chamber is 1" at the top, 2+" deep. With Urban Cowboy sipping slow I get over an hour and a half out of it.

That Don Carlos is nice. I'll try Urban Cowboy in the Hardcastle this week when I get all the stuff. From what's in there, it seems like it'll be worth sipping! Thanks for your help.
 
Never did puff at last night's family-in-law affair, but was gifted an ounce of 'as-near-as' match to the only tobacco that my father-in-law reportedly smoked -- Barking Dog.
This morning has been GLP Telegraph Hill in this undated Pete Deluxe 5S
EDIT-Note_8-7-23: Hallmarks dated 1997, thanks to JimInks

A third of the way through this bowl of early 2000s Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Are there silver hallmarks on the band? You could date the manufacture year by that.
 
Passing the first third of this bowl of Seattle Pipe Club Give Me Liberty in a straight smooth medium brown pre-1920 straight Marechal Ruchon & Cie. Royale apple with a sterling silver band and a tapered black vulcanite stem.

Enjoyed a Jethro Bodine size bowl of chili topped with sharp cheddar cheese with unsalted crackers and five slices of cinnamon raisin French toast with a golden delicious apple on the side. Boylan's Root Beer was my drink. Now, I'm smoking Jim’s English in a full bend black pebble finish 2001 Rinaldo Lithos YY8 Titania Silver Line egg with a tapered black acrylic stem. Getting ready to brew some Larry's Espresso #9 as I watch lousy Braves base running in the Braves-Cubs game. My weekly pipe zoom begins at the top of the hour. I'll DVR the rest of the ball game then.

Yes, on the both bands -- stummel and stem -- but I need better everything (camera/app, magnifier, eyesight) to ID them.
