My First Dunhill

[irish]

Well I finally got my first Dunhill, and to make things even better, it is my birth year. A 1968 Dunhill Shell briar straight billiard. Most of you have seen it already. I bought it from Samcoffeeman, and I want to say I couldn't be happier. He did a great job restoring it and made me a great deal. Thanks again Sam I really appreciate it. It only took me 24 years but I got it!!! :puffpipe:

I especially like the slight forward cant of the bowl. Nice pipe!

There is a 'je ne se quois' about a Dunhill The history, the lightness of the briar, the way the stem is formed.
I love all of mine, even the straight ones. I know that I own 'better' pipes, but a Dunhill is a Dunhill.
Good luck with yours.
