Dunhill Inner Tube Patent No.

Sorry I am phrasing my request poorly, I would like to know the chamber diameter of your pipe.

 

[pappymac]

Yes. The Chamber diameter is 1-5/8 inches.

 

[doctorbob]

Wow! the hole diameter is an inch and one half wide? I would love to see a picture of the top of the pipe. You have one of the shorter bowl height variety, I love the stamping!

Yes. The Chamber diameter is 1-5/8 inches.

Uh oh...
Condition is an issue, then. Sounds like the chamber walls were deeply charred and then then sanded down to healthy wood. The largest diameter chamber Dunhill used for any standard-sized pipe that I've ever seen (or heard about) was .88"

 

[doctorbob]

The chamber diameter is 7/8 on my 151 above, and I do feel that the pipe has been over reamed in the past.

[pappymac]

Doctobob - Sorry. I wrote the diameter for the outside. The inside diameter of the bowl is closer to 13/16"

 

[pappymac]

Height looks to be just under 2 inches.

 

[doctorbob]

What a wonderful pipe!
Bob

No more "uh oh," we're back to "oh, wow!" :lol:

I'm calling him to make sure he knows what he gave me.

He's been a manager at a pipe and cigar shop for at least 25 years that I know of, so I pretty sure he knew what it is.

 

[pappymac]

Decided to see what I could do instead of trusting this pipe to the postal services.

Here's the day's efforts:

Letting it rest overnight and will load it up with an English blend tomorrow afternoon.
