Hello! I am new to the forum and am looking at a Ben Wade "Preben Holm" Hand Carved Danish Freehand. It is stamped:
"Ben Wade"

"DANISH HAND MODEL"

"100"

"MADE IN DENMARK"
However, the "DANISH HAND MODEL" is stamped upside down. Is this ever encountered? Or is there an "issue" with this pipe? Just curious...

Mine is stamped the right way, although very faint, not even good enough for a pic.
But I only gave 10 bucks for it in neglected condition.
Mine smokes a little hot but that just reminds me to slow down some more on my puffin.
Enjoy your new pipe
Tom

sorry i can not help you sir. wished i could help... i have 1 ben wade, it is a straight billiard black in color with a silver band. i like it. i would like to search out some ben wades on ebay. i have seen some on ebay that look pretty nice. i know there is a collectible period for ben wade pipes. i purchased mine in the 70`s. at the tinder box. i hope you find what your looking for. i also enjoy chartan pipes. i think there was a relationship between ben wade pipes and charatan pipes at one time.
