Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am smoking year 2012 Esoterica Dunbar in a smooth straight, dark brown early 1960s Lane era Charatan Selected 43 Dublin with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad. Lunch was lots of pizza and oatmeal raisin cookies. Ice water and bergs is my drink. The shy orange tabby is snoozin' by my side.

MacB Vintage Syrian in this Savenelli 920KS oddball pipe.
The pipe was natural when I bought it, no stain.
It has the Savenelli shield and "ITALY" stamped on it.
But, it also has a two tone briar band and a Cumberland stem.
I have never seen another one like it.
I found it in a tobacco shop about 15 years ago.
It has a bunch of fills on the top of the pipe, so I would think a "seconds" type pipe, but the brair band and Cumberland stem are odd on a second or a Savenelli Natural line. And why would they put their shield on a second?
