Spot on ! I own an otherwise fine patent Dunhill's shell LV 1 ( vulcano, original not fitted with a FT stem ) that was given a similar stem by ( if memory serves me correctly ) Scandpipes . Always wondered if it is a Dunhill repair, or one of their own "creations".
Did not so much mind it then, I bought it for a song . But now as we speak of it ?
The tenon shows the original 45 degrees bevel.
George; what say you ?

A pic or two plus the price makes it easier and quicker to see what's what. (Much faster than having to go to links.)Pics or it didn't happen.
That's a new one on me.I won this lot yesterday. It was a best offer. Has anyone seen a BBB Shamrock before? The lot was all 1930s and prior. So I’m assuming it’s from that era.
Whoah, you won that Comoys 499 in that group??I won this lot yesterday. It was a best offer. Has anyone seen a BBB Shamrock before? The lot was all 1930s and prior. So I’m assuming it’s from that era.
That’s the reason I bought it, then I looked at some photos closer and there was this mysterious BBB as well.Whoah, you won that Comoys 499 in that group??
Wow, score, great eye, can't wait to see it restoredThat’s the reason I bought it, then I looked at some photos closer and there was this mysterious BBB as well.
I have a whole bunch of Comoys I’m collecting to have cleaned up. A few I think have some crazy nice grain, but are so super dirty I honestly can’t tell. I’ll do some before and after photosWow, score, great eye, can't wait to see it restored
Could you show a picture of the box please? I'm slowly 'understanding' Sasienis, and it's good to know what boxes went with which variations.Wonderful Sasieni Two Dot 106 here. formerly the "Stratford" , one of my favourite Sasieni shapes, along with the "Waterloo" .
I own a two dot 106 , it came in like new condition with the original red and white Sasieni box.
The box itself is imho a treasure to behold. It came for 15,00 , I was the sole bidder.
Being more rare than the four dots, the two - are not often seen.
Like on mine the dots look to be of the smaller size. Unless they only came in one size dots ?
Of course; I will do so at earliest convenience. It is really very nice.Could you show a picture of the box please? I'm slowly 'understanding' Sasienis, and it's good to know what boxes went with which variations.
The grain is nicer on the first one and the COM stamp is of an older era as well than the second one. I have a feeling some people can’t see the condition of pipes that well and may have disappointment. This maybe being one?Here is a puzzler. It's a 2nd line Sasieni Ashford (shape 88). They go for around $70 - $100 (there's a BIN now up for $70 plus shipping). Someone absolutely butchered the stem on this example, yet it had 14 bids and brought $62.

Whether you're a seasoned collector or just starting out, this estate piece is a unique addition to any collection. Don't miss out on the opportunity to own a piece of pipe history. This "Friar" sports more than its share of vertical grain on the shank.www.ebay.com
Here's the BIN if anyone is looking (I'd say the Royal Stuart line is better than the Friar). It is in Greece.
