Hello everybody,
I have just "won" a bidding for this used Peterson's Deluxe 11S at an online site. I haven't received the pipe yet, but I have some detailed photos from the seller - see below.
The marking on the pipe says "Peterson's Deluxe Special" 11S, and it has a golden band. (there seems to be some stamping on the other side of the head as well, but I cannot make it out from the photo).
I have read up on the Peterson Deluxe System pipes, but there is no mention anywhere about "Special" categories within the Deluxe series - and also not much about golden bands (I assume it is not real gold...).
I wonder if anybody can give me some insight about this pipe.
Thank you in advance for your input!
