Help with a Vintage Stanwell

[popeofpiping]

Hey everyone. I am in need of some knowledge with older Stanwells. I'd like to send some pictures and see if someone could give me a rough date or era.

If you'd like to take a look leave an email, and I will promptly send the markings on the pipe. Thanks!

What are the markings? Does the pipe have the S on the stem? There should also be a shape number. This is a good place to start,

From the picture there is a yellowish gold crowned S
Stanwell on onside of the shank
137 on the other side

 

[dmcmtk]

No Regd.N°.969-48 mark or line, or finish mark?

 

[popeofpiping]

Pipe is a deluxe 137

 

[popeofpiping]

137 Small Dublin, sloping bowl by Tom Eltang.

Im not seeing the reg #

 

[dmcmtk]

PM sent. The pipe was made after they stopped using the Reg. No.

 

[popeofpiping]

So sometime after the 60s

So sometime after the 60s

The "Regd. No." stamping discontinued in late 1960s to very early 1970s, but that would not stop me, still Made in Denmark, and it's a lovely shape.

Looks like a job for Joeman. He’s the Stanwell guru.

Was it this one? If so, you did good! That's a real beauty...........

I was watching that one too, and would have bought it, had I not spent so much on others the last few days........

 

[popeofpiping]

Ahh it was. She sure is a beauty. First Danish buy.

 

[beefeater33]

Congratulations on that one!! Probably won't be your last either........ :wink:

And you should have it by Christmas!!

 

[popeofpiping]

Thank you sir. It will be a nice early gift indeed!

Pope...I'm your seller. While tommorrow is Sunday...I'll be shipping it Priority Mail and hand delivering it to the drop box inside my local PO...I'm pretty sure it'll be there before Christmas. Glad you grabbed an Eltang design off me for a nice price.
