Help with pipe ID please

[amtn85]

Howdy everyone.

Found this little beauty recently and cannot find an ID on it. Smokes like a dream, I would love to know more about it. Only has the markings "NASSAU"+"GENUINE BRIAR" and the ^ ...

If anyone has info on who made it and when/where I would really appreciate it. This has become my favorite pipe in just a few weeks.

Thanks,

For what its worth, I read somewhere that pipe manufacturers started stamping pipes with 'Genuine Briar' sometime after WWII when real Mediterranean briar became available again.
Probably doesn't help you much!
