Having Wilke’s 515 in a Peterson - Irish Freestate: Hallmark stamped 1919, for the Free State Era 1922 - 1937.
For whatever reason(s) it was stamped 1919, and later sold as an Irish Freestate.
Peterson told me;
—-
This garners immense historical significance as the parts were created during two separate era's of Irish History.

I feel very blessed @ashdigger to own such a historical piece.
Be well everyone!
@bullet08 because I know you love Petes, this smoke is for you!
I really love seeing your pics of the Petes you own, they are all so nice looking, so I’ve got to figure out how to get a really nice shot of this for you later, because the grains on this pipe are a lot nicer looking than this pic.
P.S. @Richmond B. Funkenhouser funny thing, I was digging around the forum a few weeks back, saw a post from you, and thought, haven’t seen him around in a while, and now here you are again... LOL ?
Welcome back!
