That’s a good’in. I like seeing the color pop after you cleaned her up. Also… someone get this guy a new ruler from a more local establishment. lol.

That's a keepsake from Maryland, those guys did a lot of screens for me over 40 years of home ownership!

Classic beauty. Nice job!

I love all of my old GBDs but sadly I don’t have a 529. A great shape.

Very good job on a great pipe.
I love older GBDs and that's a very cool blast on a very cool shape.

Holy crap! I just noticed I'm a Lifer here now with this post.
My family will be so proud.
