As @cshubhra always says, “cigar time.” CAO Flathead V660.

That's about how far I made it through my first one before bailing the other day!

Escudo in a Stanwell No.242 - it’s like a No.11 that was scaled back to specifically hold one slice of escudo. Literally.

What did the pipe smoker smoke back in the day if he/she lived in intemperate climes?
Maybe something like this:-
Mid 20th cent HURRICANE PIPE DE LUXE / BRIT. PAT. 404814 Rd. 787372 / NUTT PRODUCTS Ltd. / MADE IN LONDON ENG. / HAND CUT stem
+ Samuel Gawith WESTMORLAND MIXTURE:-


... and a similar design invented by Frederick Hudes and sold by Fortnum & Mason in London named The Windward which was patented in 1938 alongside The Hurricane:-
/

An alternative to The Hurricane/Windward pipe is a regular pipe with removable wind shield
(making a change from the fixed, hinged or chain attached caps/crowns/shields of the period).
These examples stamped St. CLAIR / PATENT / LONDON MADE for bowl sizes 1, 2 and 3 made in aluminium and in silver (the silver caps stamped F.P ( Frederic Purnell) with marks for London 1906:-

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, wild caught catfish and asparagus with red grapes and cherries for dessert. I'm now smoking Prince Albert in a 2020 smooth light brown, slight bent J. Everett straight grain chubby author with a spalted birch ferrule and a black saddle vulcanite stem in the military mount style. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Going to clean a few pipes before long.

Enjoying some Revor Plug in an Emerald MM with dark roast coffee with a tab of butter...surprisingly good. My neighbor’s pup Hunter in the background being lazy. ️

Red Flag Blend (Exotics/Orientals) in 2 Amadeus (Greece) pipes, a diplomat (right) and a bent apple (left).
To all my military Veteran brothers, thank you for your service. I salute you.

Lightly aged PS Luxury Bullseye Flake in a Stanwell Danish Reserve on the damp FL porch with black coffee.

 

[JimInks]

Now smoking year 2014 HU Directors Cut in a smooth straight Lane era Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad. I wish the manufacturer hadn't changed the formula on this blend, and reduce the perique content. Cheap so-and-sos didn't even have the common decency to tell the blend creator, Hans Wiedemann.

2007 Sam’s Flake in my Nuttens belge.

 

[Richmond B. Funkenhouser]

Now Smoking Captain Black White in a bent basket pipe. Diet Coke is what I'm drinking, as I enjoy a warm evening on the front porch.

Savinelli Janus in a Rinaldo Lithos apple bowled Lovat....or Lovat shanked apple.
