the stem is what grabbed me on this guy. it had a heavy cake in it and up on the rime. cleaned that all down cleaned up the stem and it is a wonderful smoker. this was one of those pipes that i just picked up and knew it was supposed to be mine.
cortezattic - the cc logo is brass. i didn't know anything about the chacom, but the cc logo was something i remebered seeing. this guy is marked "chacom dynasties"
got this guy for $30, and to any guys in the cincinnati area the place is on reading road(42) and he has a pretty decent selection of estate pipes and new ones. lots of savinellis in the new ones it seemed. i was digging through the cabinet of estates and didn't pay attention. next time i go down there i'll grab their card and post their info.
