Greetings, All,
I'm new with this strange addiction to pipe smoking and pipe collecting, and have a few questions about the specialized description of pipes. For instance, what is a "Shell" pipe that I've seen used to describe Dunhill? And "Cumberland," "Fishtail," "Billiard," and "Pot?" BTW, my current collection includes two Peterson Dracula pipes, a Brebbia (with a curious cone shaped interior bowl; this pipe doesn't smoke very well at all) and a LaRocca Piccalo pocket pipe which ironically smokes better that all the larger pipes. Any and all advice is appreciated. Sparrowhawk
