Look What I Found

[buckeye]

some may remember i bought a large lot of estate pipes a while back.was going through them last night

and seen a dot on the stem of one.well guess what it said dunhill root briar.cleaned it up a little

and just smoked a bowl of miss river.glad no one bought them.the info i found on it was that it was

made between 1937 and 1947.

Great looking pipe.

billiard--billiard bowl, usually with a round shank, can be bent or straight; typically, a billiard will have a stem about half the length of the pipe. Billiards sort of all look inconspicuous; if undercover cops smoked pipes, they would smoke billiards.
billiard-A bowl which is two-thirds of a tall elipse; possibly the most common bowl shape, the name probably comes from the French word for "log."

from the OooOPS site which I just found wondering where the name 'billiard' came from.
