Gift Of Ehrlich

[buck17]

My friend runs the Thrift Shop of Boston and gave me this. I guess Ehrlich is a storied Boston brand that produced from 1868-1968. Pipedia link here: Ehrlich's - Pipedia - https://pipedia.org/wiki/Ehrlich%27s
This thing is some sort of pot-poker-bulldog.

They can be good pipes. Quality ranges across the map but they have been called "The Poor Man's Dunhill" before.

Square shanked pot with saddle stem.

and not one of their in-house pipes, it's stamped Italy

I definitely fall under that category.

Right. Noticed that.

Is there a shape number? I used to order pipe tobacco by the pound from Ehrlich's back in the day (late '80's - early '90's when I lived in VT). Visited the store a few times also as my older brother was living in Boston, and have quite a few Ehrlich's pipes!

It looks very much like a Savinelli pipe to me.

That’s great. Yeah it says 140 I believe.

Nice pipe.

That's referred to as a square shank.
I'd also call it a pot, so it's a Square Shank Pot. [Or Pot with Square Shank. (?)]
I'm also wondering if it would also be called a Sitter? Or does a 'Sitter' need to be bent to qualify?

That logo on the stem doesn't tell you the brand?

Cool. Thanks for clarifying. It’s not an oft seen combo. Yeah in regards to sitter I was sayin poker. Anyway it is a very fun smoker.
