Jon Voight Pipe

[nicotnman]

Any Idea what kind of pipe brand and model# this might be that Jon Voight is smoking in movie Deliverance? Gonna try to post pics. Hope it works.

Reminds me of a Savinelli.

It’s blurry but the logo almost looks like a big C, like a Comoy pipe?

I'm not a Savinelli expert but I believe it's a model 606KS from their Purty Mouth line.

I thought that was a Peterson band, but I believe hawky spotted the tell, the big Chacom "C." James Dickey, the author who wrote Deliverance, was in the movie as a country Georgia Sheriff, and he did a great job acting. He was a colorful, troubled, bigger-than-life character. His main work was poetry. He wrote a great poem about Kudzu, and another one about the thoughts of a flight attendant (woman) who falls out of the plane, her thoughts on the way down. He had a day job, as a young man, as an ad copywriter, at which he was successful. He tooled around in a Jaguar XK-E. He was an ardent outdoorsman, bow hunter, canoeist, boater. He was a bomber navigator in WWII, though he seemed to fib about being a pilot. His son is now in later middle-age and is a foreign correspondent based, I think, in Paris. Smart like his dad, but much more grounded. He has a lot of his dad's verbal abilities, careful and precise, adept with detail and vocabulary. Christopher is the son.

Has a Savinelli look to me as well. I definitely don't get a Comoy's vibe.
I do know that that this there pipe don't go to Aintry.

Is that "Jon" Voight, or "John" Voight?
I saw his Chrysler LeBaron on eBay, too...

Can you zoom in on the teeth marks? I have a pencil that I'm fairly sure belonged to him, but I'd like to confirm

Sorry, meant Comoy, not Chacom. Chacom derived from the joining of the Chapuis and Comoy companies, but the Chacom logo was a double "C". That's what comes from trying to do two or three things at once in a hurry. I knew what I meant; that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I have his car.

 

[mso489]

I remember that episode!

We need JimInks to solve this mystery.

Seacaptain.... Hahaha. Most likely but it could be from their squeal like a pig limited edition line too.
