Paul Fischer Freehand

[fred]

This one is a unique interpretation of a Paneled Billiard that Paul Fischer

created, likely back in the late '60's to early '70's. It has found a place

in my modest collection. It has been remarkably spared from the burden

of time and should become a great smoker.

Very nice looking pipe. I can safely say I am jealous of your collection. I looking forward to seeing your next acquisitions.

The square shank and saddle-like bit make it, for me. Nice pipe. Kind of Art Deco, don't you think?

Fred... looks like "the hits just keep on comin'".

Another fine acquisition...

I think you have the worst best case of PAD on the site...

My local is getting about 250 Meers sent in in the next month... I am looking forward to getting my own and I hope one day to have some peices to rival those in your collection Fred!

Thanks guys! Yes Cortezattic, it reminded me of an art deco style as

well. Much of Paul's art is characterized by flowing lines and this is

a cubist departure that is uncommon for him. Good to hear that people are

considering smoking Meerschaums! It takes time to build a collection, so

there is no real trick to it.
