They're beautiful, Brad. What are they, size 5 maybe?
I've been told he priced them right alongside Dunhill models, sometimes higher, and always had a backorder list. Also, nobody has ever explained his three dot numbering system either, especially on the mouthpiece in just bthat spot. Makes me think it was either a tip of the hat or a nosethumbing at his perceived competition.
Thanks for sharing, Sir.
