Glorious Sunday here in blighty, and I'm about to light up my afternoon smoke.
I can't tell you much about this pipe, I bought it as a job lot of old pipes, for a couple of quid, in a car boot sale.
(Garage sale) to my friends across the pond. It was in a bit of a mess. But after reaming the bowl, which it needed very badly. Resetting with the salt and alcohol, and cleaning the stem then polishing it with savinelli stem polish. It came up a treat, and smokes divinely. I can find no maker's mark on it anywhere. But I suspect it to be an older version of a Dr. Plumb.
I think older version because of the extremely poor state of the bowl, and and huge build up of cake. But mostly because the Briar bowl is superb, unlike Dr. Plumb pipes now, which use a lesser quality briar.
Anyway, history lesson over, I'm about to plug it with Thomas Radfords Sunday Fantasy. And light it up.
Have a great day my friends.
