Just received a Dunhill Tanshell about which I had a quick question:
The pipe is stamped as such:
3109
DUNHILL TANSHELL (over)
MADE IN ENGLAND 26 (small numbers with underline)
I do not see a size number/circle or finish type or any other stampings.
I was thinking it dates to a 1976? I was looking at pipepedia and saw that they reference a 1976 Tanshell as having an underlined 16 and in 1978 the shape numbers all changed to 5 digits so I ruled out 1986.
Don't have the ability right now to attach pictures.
Thoughts and or confirmation?
Thanks
