I bid on this Dunhill on eBay, and apparently everyone else was asleep at the wheel, so I secured it for the low, low price of $37.00. The nomenclature is DUNHILL SHELL, England 12, Canadian, a blurred patent ending in 45/21, and Pending. The dating guide puts the manufacture date at approximately 1932.
It was very clean, inside and out, but the stem is really thin at the button end. I have been smoking EMP and Princes Street in it, and it smokes very well. I plan on displaying it with my Broken Castello when it comes back from Walker Briar Repair.
