thanks Jesse/Dshift, I had the columns reversed.
Here's my '65, I think it is somewhere in this thread:
I wanted a Barling and I wanted a Canadian.
So here it is.
Edit. It has a dunhill draw and smokes fantastic!

Not the best pics, but soon I’ll get a group photo of all my Barling pipes.
Barlings Make S-M, shape 92.
Aside from some buffing down of the bit, it’s remained in very nice shape- even saving the stem logo quite well.
Definitely deserved a “Birdseye” stamp. I don’t know what decades that was commonly used, nor what decade this pipe was made.
Roughly guessing- late 30s to late 40s?

The Birdseye stamp came into use in the 1950’s. Beautiful pipe!
So that would ALMOST have to put it in the 40s.
Something about the overall pipe doesn’t give me “pre- mid-30s” vibes.
It’s basic with stamps, no TVF.
Side A:
Barlings Make
Ye Olde Wood
92
Side B:
S-M
Early 40's, wartime production, based on the style of the logo stamp and the lack of other stamps.
Well, there you have it, Bluegrass..... You can take it to the bank.
