Gawith Hoggarth & Co.: Kendal Kentucky in a Meer...
Yes, a nice early example of the slot which just goes to show that the so called 'orific bit' didn't have the field to itself from circa 1860 to circa 1935 before it was phased out.
Entering into the spirit of the proceedings here are a few other examples of the 'slotted bit'
(1) From 1882......................................................................................................................... (2) From 1884
3) From 1888 ................................................................................................................................................ (4) From 1900
Just sitting down to a pipe full of Carter Hall in my MM bent Legend. Sipping some Suntory Toki whiskey.
Celebrating passing my Math test and getting an amazing score on my first writing assignment since 2000.

GH Brown Flake Unscented in a Pete SH Hudson
Getting close to the half way mark on this bowl of J.F. Germain & Son Rich Dark Flake in a straight sandblasted black billiard 2013 PSF POY Kaywoodie with an amber colored lucite tapered stem.
Had a craving for something vintage. So I grabbed some of this from 2000:
And I smoked it in this old Peterson 606 Rocky Donegal, from back when they still had silver band and vulcanite stem:

D&R Two Timer, twice toasted burleys, in an MM natural finish freehand cob with the nice prickly feel. I have a pound of Two-Timer, which to me is a truckload. I'm glad to say it seems to keep extremely well, if not age with improvement. I'm preparing a cover letter for a big project. I keep sensing I am participating in a practical joke; I have to get my mind right.
Fribourg & Treyer Vintage Flake in a Sasieni Four Dot Amesbury
2007 Fillmore in a Stanwell Rondo billiard/pot.
More bowls than usual today. Had a bowl of Solani ABF for breakfast, several bowls of Country Squire Black and Tan, and now a bowl of Sheperds Pie for dessert. Still not totally sold on these two blends from Country Squire. I have two more to sample. Rivendell and Second Breakfast. All I've been smoking lately is either Windjammer or Pegasus.
An excellent Argentine produced Chocolate Virginia/Burley blend in a Charatan 610. Along with a coffee and Marroc choccy.
2005 Marlin Flake in my Castello diamond shank bent billiard.
Smoking some 2014 PS LBF that was kindly gifted to me by one of the gentlemen working at Low Country. This blend is great with some age.
SG Cabbie's Mixture in a talking tree meer by S. Yanik with a glass of A. E. Dor 1989 vintage Grande Champagne Cognac:
This pipe is a monster! I can clench but only just long enough for the picture.
Covers my whole hand:
Thumb easily fits in the chamber:
