Hi guys, good to be back on the forum after a month or however long it’s been. I hope you have all been well and behaving yourselves.

I’m smoking one of my latest acquisitions, a London made Kaywoodie Flame Grain, Extra Large Billiard, I wish the light was good enough for a decent picture because the grain is incredible and I don’t think the pipe was smoked more than a half dozen times. Anyhoo, I’m having this Edgeworth RR from a very old tin, I believe it’s 1960’s (if anyone can accurately date it I’d appreciate it) and I rehydrated a portion of it a couple of days ago and it’s smoking beautifully.

So glad you’re smoking the stuff. I noticed it was a gift from a friend earlier on, and wondered if it would collect dust on a shelf…good for you & hope you enjoy every bit. ?☕
@Simmerdown☕️ Thanks mate ? aye it’s very mellow and enjoyable. I can see why it was such a popular blend. I’ll be sure to reuse the empty tin.
Happy smokes

@telescopes: Isn't that one of those rare 'Lee Pipes' I've been reading about? :col:
Yes it is. Here is another

Although our famous Hillbilly attorney places them equal to 1930s Kaywoodie pipes, they are not equal in my experience. However @Briar Lee is correct instating they are indeed quality pipes. At least when referring to the ones with gold filled stars. I find they make good “reach for” pipes when simply wanting a nice smoke and not wanting to worry about messing with my better pipes because I am simply indecisive at the moment. These two required a lot of cleaning and I eventually had to send them out for a professional redo. Now, they do as advertised. They are easy to reclock and that is a plus and the stars look cool. I have one unsmoked one that is a latter build. It came with the box and the outside quality is noticeably lacking. You have a good eye. When I return from Morocco, I am ordering some more Condor. That tobacco will be used with my Lees.
