Just finished a long, fun Zoom chat. I smoked:
Year 1985 MacBaren Scottish Mixture in a 2015 Basil Meadows Bing Crosby Merchant Service replica with a smooth straight thin shank, aluminum band and black ebonite stem.
Watch City Rhythm & Blues in a black sandblasted straight 1998 XXX Ashton lovat with a black acrylic saddle stem.
Year 2008 H&H Anniversary Kake in a smooth 1979 Chippendale (Charatan second) Rhodesian 49 with a black vulcanite saddle stem.
KBV Merchant Service Pipes Unnamed American Blend Prototype in a 2019 straight smooth dark brown Merchant Service “Bing” with a nickel band and black vulcanite tapered stem.
Year 2014 Kramer's Blend for Cary Grant in a 1949 medium bend Dunhill Shell with a black vulcanite tapered stem.
And I'm just past the half way mark on this bowl of Prince Albert in a 2015 Basil Meadows black sandblasted billiard with an aluminum band and a pearl red acrylic tapered stem.
