Wolf Pipe, Made In England

And if there's any way you could somehow determine the reg number on the stem that might help narrow down the date of manufacture on your pipe.

@jguss I can just barely make out "RD 638866" on the stem.

@jguss I can just barely make out "RD 638866" on the stem.

It seems unlikely to me. That number was assigned between April 1 and July 10 of 1914, and I think Wolf was still working for other pipe manufacturers at that time. I gather the stamping on your pipe is faint and difficult to read. Does the OP (or anyone else reading this) have a Wolf Bros pipe with a legible design registration number on it?

If it’s definitely 638866 I can start the wheels turning to order copies of what survived but would prefer a little more certainty first.

Forgive the quality of the camera. You can make it out in the photo but here in front of me it's much clearer.

And it's confirmed, though rather fainter, on a second pipe.

Good enough for me. The wheels are in motion. Should take a month or so to hear back.
