Well looky here.... I managed to bag another American made early Falcon off a certain auction site! Not really "deep cleaned, waxed and polished" as it was claimed, but it is now after I have spent a couple of evenings de-gunking the stem and polishing off the oxidisation. Not for smoking this one, for my collection. I am figuring this one to be fairly early again, the stamp under the bowl is just '1' and it has the American 'FALCON' stamp to the rear. 1950s? It's in reasonable condition, but well loved and clearly from a clencher!
