Sweet blast time... 8)
This pipe looks like it was made in the 1920's, when Dunhill was still sorting out the Shell process and sometimes shapes would distort a bit from blasting.
It's from the last patent year, though. 1954. Go figure.
Not much more to say. The 59 is an all-time classic, the finish here is about as good as it gets, and the condition is outstanding.
Oh yeah, it smokes as good as it looks, tirelessly processing vast quantities of Kendal Dark into a tasty concentrated aerosol of liquid particles suspended in an atmosphere of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide whenever I ask it to. :puffy:
