I just picked this one up. It has the Generic "French Briar" case logo. The "Best Make" stamp I usually associate with CPF. I have no idea who L.B. was. I like the look a lot. It's a big bent well pipe with a thick sexy cherry Bakelite stem. The band and leaf applique look like there was some work done by hand. Early teens is my guess.
This is the pic as bought. I've cleaned up the bowl and band. There's a pretty good divot at the bottom bit area I'm repairing. I should have a restored pic in a couple days.
