Five digit shape numbers were used in 1975, '76, '77, and some of '78

Thank you!

I saw that one and thought the first digit after England was a 2. If so, this would mean 1980-83

Hoping I can see something above the line next to England once I get it in hand.

Could be. The 5 digit code went into the 1980’s.

 

[Big John Shea]

Appreciate all the insights!

Well, it is a nice pipe no matter how old it is.

Hmmm. Well, alright. I'll date it ONCE, but that's it.
Ha! Sorry. Could not seem to resist!

Yup.

A few posts up, I said 5 digits only lasted until 1978.

Not sure what I was thinking. Hell, I have a 51033 from 1982 in my own collection.

It reminds me of that joy division album art

It looks like @georged has been sniffing some of that high powered glue he uses!!
