Maybe they meant newest deluxe system pipe shape in decades.
B42 is a deluxe system, at least I think it was released as a deluxe first then in the Premier and standard lines after, but I would have to reference for sure. I have never seen one of the Deluxe versions with a saddle S stem only tapered B stems, I always wondered if that had something to do with the shape name with the B in front of the 42
Finally arrived. POTY in sandblast. Just weighing up what to smoke first in it. View attachment 332820
Go with a nice untopped non aromatic burley to break er in and not ghost the reservoir I almost always smoke a simple pure tobacco flavor burley or straight VA in my systems to break them in.

OR
Decide your favorite tobacco and just dedicate it to that

OR... don't listen to me because there are so many options you will think on it more than you will enjoy that gorgeous pipe. :D

I tend to dedicate my pipes to a specific family of tobacco, vanilla aromatics, fruity aros, Virginia's etc.

Some of you may have seen this in another thread already, but I recently won this 1906 Pete Patent meer at auction. It was in decent condition, and judging from the bowl was not smoked very much. I was absolutely gutted when it arrived to discover that the stem had broken in transit, but I still think it's worth posting here for interest:IMG20240831153014.jpgIMG20240831153027.jpgIMG20240831153038.jpgIMG20240831153044.jpgIMG20240831153056.jpgIMG20240831153101.jpgIMG20240831153111.jpgIMG20240831153155.jpg
