New Pipe

[redz]

Walked in to the local tobacconist and this one caught my eye right away. Of course it was the most expensive one there! It has "L&JS 925" on the band and LJS on the stem. As you can see, the nomenclature is very clear and has various markings. Is anyone familiar with this maker?

A Les Wood Ferndown? Yeah, I'd say you did a bit better than okay.

It's actually called the Tobacco Shack in Germantown, MD. When I called the guy just answered the phone, "Hello, how can I help you?", no business name or nothing. Then I was trying to find the place, but there's no sign up yet or anything. I tried the door and it was locked, but the guy came right away and let me in. Kind of strange, but I'm happy!

Thanks! Great information, that explains a lot, thank you. The price tag said "$295", but I got it for $135!

He no longer makes pipes now and they are fairly pricey when they come up on eBay.

Probably limiting floor space to comply with pandemic specifications.
