So very sorry for the loss of your dad, @OzPiper.Taking out a couple of 1922s today - being Dad’s birth year.
Dad passed away on Wednesday, after a short illness (influenza), 3 days short of his 103rd birthday
I can’t recall ever seeing him with a pipe, but he smoked cigarettes for years - Players Navy Cut, Lucky Strike, Peter Stuyvesant, Benson&Hedges.
He stopped smoking in 1985 after a heart attack
So here’s to you Dad
1st up is a 1922 FLC straight billiard

Being a cigarette smoker, I thought Dad would be happy with the blend of Burley, Virginia and Cavendish in MacBaren’s Navy Flake

But, at the same time, what a wonderfully long life he lived. Just imagine all the things that he saw, witnessed and heard about that took place in over a century!
