Enjoying a peaceful Sunday whilst I contemplate the state of the world. Today I am on a Warrior Plug bender since I want to smoke this down before it starts to dry out and require a CNC machine to slice it up. My pipe of the day is this ADP with silver band and true amber stem. I have no idea of the age of this pipe and I know very little about ADP so if anyone wants to enlighten me I am all ears. My drink of the day is a rather exciting post brunch Russian lager which were on sale for $1.50 each for a 650 ML bottle. What could possibly go wrong? rotf

That pipe was made by the English firm of Adolph David Posener (A.D.P.). You can date it by the hallmark on the silver band. (Check Google for "silver hallmarks".)
I wrote an article about the A.D.P. pipe for the April 2020 issue of NASPC's magazine, The Pipe Collector.
