***What Are You Smoking, July 2022?***

[TheIronMonkey]

Going to light up Presbyterian in a Dr. Grabow CDL (Cooler, Drier, Lighter) with a briar bowl, metal shank, and nylon stem (a Dr. Grabow filter is in the thicker section in front of the stem). The diminutive bowl has a carburetor in the front. This pipe was produced from about 1975–1983 in limited quantities and test marketed in several cities, but, not ever mass marketed. This particular one is not stamped “CDL,” nor does it have the cancellation crosshatching over the CDL stamp seen on many. I have no idea if this is an early or late iteration.

Half way through this bowl of year 2013 Sam Gawith Squadron Leader in a straight post-1981 GBD Prehistoric 133 billiard with brass accents, the letter K stamped on the shank with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Working and listening to Howlin' Wolf.

This was the blend Basil Rathbone smoked.
