Has anyone here ever smoked, or owned, one of these figural pipes? There is a Napoleon that I like the looks of, but I'm wondering if they are decent smokers, or better saved as a display piece.

There was a set of them on ebay recently. As an added bit of trivia, we're it not for Wally Frank's intervention and marketing, Castello would have gone the way of the dinosaur back in the 1950s.
I think they where made with a sort of Lamberoth replicating machine. As for smoking , they should smoke like the average briar pipe from that time.
