This cob belonged to a friend's grandfather. I gave it a cleaning little facelift, but otherwise it's stock. It was either unsmoked, or it had been smoked and restored...I'm not sure which, although the bowl's walls were clean and thinner than those on contemporary MM cobs. It has a bamboo shank and a vulcanite (I think) stem with a stinger. The MM logo is stamped on the hardwood insert on the bottom of the bowl.
I think she was planning to let me keep it, and after taking it for a test drive tonight I hope she does. I bought a tin of Irish Oak today, and it handled it like a champ.
