I just picked up this little M.P.B Brebbia pipe. I assume it's a type of table pipe like a Savinelli Kalumet, but this one is rather small and light. It has a wind cap (I presume) and a strange notch behind said cap.
Stranger yet is that the logo sticker is attached to what is a plug in the back of the pipe. By plug I mean it is a round dowel made of briar in a hole in the back of the pipe. The plug does not come out. My theory is that the plug hole was originally the main bowl of the pipe, a defect was found and so the briar was made into this pipe configuration so as not to just end up in the scrap pile.
The front of the pipe says
AUTO
Best Briar
(Smoking Gnone Logo) - like the little man on the sticker
Anybody got any info on this pipe? or can you forward on this thread to someone who might please.
