Calling The Bard: My Barling PAD Acquisition.

[PaulTheScandinavian]

Looks like very close to those early Peterson 606 Pot Shape,I had one once but did not like the chamber size, it was way too broad to my liking.

"tank of gas for 35$ -- holy petrol prices" -- Well, I admit I use premium, but still....

BTW, Jay, I'll keep the relative tank difference in mind the next time I use this as a yardstick. }

Dang. It's hit me: I had a little pot Barling just like the shiny one, but in better condition. When and where it parted my company I do not know. Now I recall several pipes that got lost from 50 years ago- a "Le Pipe"- no loss; the Barling pot; another Barling, a military mount billiard, and a bent Pete system pipe- or maybe a knock off of same. Funny how some memories take a while to surface!
