All I know about this pipe is, it’s beautiful and what’s written on it.

No, but it doesn’t surprise me. I had five gold foil pipes. Sold four to one collector for $350 each. The one I kept I paid $50 for. And it the rarest of the bunch.
I had a truly amazing Dorset Knotty shape 05 with near perfect ring grain. I ended up using it in a trade with a Kaywoodie lover named Fletch Hiner. One of the few pipes I've let go that I wish I still had.

yeah seller stated late 1930s and there is an article in pipephil stating 1935-38 because of the imported briar stamping.i dont know how accurate pipephil is

see entry under straight grain
Nothing is 100% accurate. I talk to Bill all the time, who has done the most research. Stamps and stingers defy our information. In a factory old stummels get finished later and all kinds of things happen. The best I can pinpoint is late thirties into 1940, but it is simply an educated guess taking all data about the pipe in.

Here's most of my collection. I'll probably split it into multiple posts but we'll see. I went from a Kaywoodie hater (after a late-model Red Root that smoked terribly) to a fan after getting a couple pretty nice ones. Some of these are pretty hard to find.

Sorry for the pic quality. If I have time I'll do better later.

Here's a Super Grain Chesterfield. Haven't had the chance to clean or smoke it but I'm looking forward to it.

Next, a pair of unsmoked ones. A 4-digit Super Grain bulldog and a Ninety-Fiver Hungarian.

Next we have...well, I just looked at the photos and they suck so badly I may have to re-do them. Back in a jiff.

Alright. Back with better pics. This set is all the odd-ones out.

Here's a couple oddities. A Magnum and a Filtronic. The magnum is a later one and the Filtronic actually smokes pretty well.

Next up, a couple Yello-Boles. The top one is unsmoked and the cigar holder is just funky.

Next on the KB&B roster is...a Tudor. The stinger is an odd one, especially with the older mark on the stem.

And another KB&B oddity. Can't read it but it's interesting.
