Peterson Faceted Black Meerschaum

[Commander McBragg]

I received the pipe today and gave it a good cleaning. I’m very pleased with how it turned out and pleasantly surprised how big the bowl is. I wasn’t expecting that.

I will soon, I have recently moved house and my Photography Kit is still boxed up and most of my pipes are still being sorted, they will all be on display soon.

Looks like a 307, that was the largest standard system shape in the Peterson lineup for years until the B42 came along. Cleaned up nicely, congratulations.

Hey thanks! I was wondering the size. Thank you so much!

307 is the System standard number for the 9S, others from the same shape family are the 9B, 9BC, XL307, and XL90. If you look at my avatar you can see all the representatives of the 9 family, I collect them. There's a meer at 1 o'clock. You can see a bigger picture in the show us your Petersons thread.
