    Mr Snuff - Lead Times?

    Help Me Date a Pete

    Wow, super interesting. My initial thoughts were mid to late 40's given the Pipehill info. BROBS - how do you know its a Canadian market pipe? What distinguishes them from others?

    Help Me Date a Pete

    Couldn't pass up this shape 53 lovat (my fav) in a sandblasted Pete. Upon some initial research, based on the stamping, this would be a pre-republic pipe? Any help much appreciated!
