   The other day I bid and won this GBD on fleabay .Imagine my surprise as I removed it from the mail box .The Digby is a size 5 and a good size pipe in its own right . It smoked almost two hours after a quick cleaning .

   I had to increase the zoom level to make out some detail, but that larger pipe looks like it has some very interesting facets. Any chance you can post a larger picture of it? Looks pretty cool to me.

   Great score. I was watching that but decided to go for a couple more Petes instead.

   If at first you don't succeed you are running about average.

   Photobucket should offer you a resize tool, but with some picture files it decides that the picture is as big as it's ever going to get.

   I like it, and I think you're really fortunate to have won it. Many happy smokes.

   Your words are kind Cortezattic and by the way it is very lightly used and smokes like a dream . You and I both share a kinship for the GBD brand , Iam always looking for a good bulldog ,like the ones that you post .

   I'm something of a GBD fan myself. You got a gem there!

    I am starting to like GBD's too and yesterday I picked up an estate City De Luxe. I am hoping that is going to turn out to be a pre-merger. Will put up pics when it arrives.
    Nice buy Igloo, and kept alight for 2 hours... definitely a keeper.
