I just picked this Peterson System Standard 313 off eBay. It is unsmoked, although the stem had some chatter. It cleaned up pretty nicely, and I was able to lift the chatter. I do have a question though, for someone who may know. There is a "Z" stamped on the pipe, couldnt find anything about it. Anyway, here she is:
Just arrived in the mail yesterday from the emerald isle. An ebony silver spigot. About to inaugurate it with some GH Kendal Mixture No 7.
Just got a Standard System 307 in the new Dark finish from SP. Guess I'm becoming a system convert now with 3 in the past couple months. The first 2 were shape 314\20s and I wanted something with a bigger chamber for morning smokes or English tobaccos. Even though the listed chamber dimensions didn't seem massive the pipe is actually a dang tank! No grain to speak of but I didn't expect any given the finish and line. Deciding whether to have Spark Plug or Watch City Slices for the first bowl

Those "Dutch" style bent billiards are awesome and I wish they still made the larger 309 The 313 is probably my favorite system shape from a pure aesthetics POV but I wish they had a bit more chamber
Wow, that's a great example of the 999 John Bull!

Drop dead beauty! Peterson's 406 is a really cool shape when done with a spigot or army mount (wish they had deeper chambers though), and the Newgranges have some excellent black sandblasts!
A NOS block meerschaum Pete I found in an antique shop in Dublin.
yeah, this pipe is so nice. I'm buying another one soon..maybe a Flame Grain or Red. I like the 999 shape
HI peeps, just wondering if anyone can tell me what era this is from.
I don't know if it's new or as in made in the 2000 onward or 1950's onward.
i've seen one from the 50's 60's but the stem fits flush & is same size as the shank.
Plus on mine there is no where it was made? Unless it's was rubbed off with over use but it seems to me just not stamped.

It's a great stem on yours and I love the abbreviated length of it before the sterling!

next to the Newgrange, a little bigger..

Beautiful spigot. I recently got a Pete spigot that came in a box just like that one. Very sturdy box.
These two Petersons arrived in the show several weeks ago. Top London Made over England, Bottom Extra Large Made In Ireland. Restored very nicely.
Just wondering what era this pete 221 comes from.
It says Meerschuam Lined under Peterson.
Any help is much appreciated.
