BBB Morell Mackenzie stamped A.F. & Co (Adolph Frankau & Co Ltd - Silver mounters & turners, manufacturers & importers of pipes and tobacconists' sundries, Queen Victoria Street, London EC) with marks for Birmingham 1903

Quote from a paper on BBB pipes by Jacques Cole:
“Probably one of the first filter pipes (paper filter) was the BBB "Sir Morell Mackenzie". That this pipe was made before 1900 is shown by a letter dated August 27, 1891 from Sir Morell Mackenzie regarding these models with longer mouthpieces. The brand survived into the 1960s.”
