[QUOTE="NeroWolfe, post: 156867, member: 797"] The stamping that is on the pipe and the Cumberland stem all look like Dunhill, and the graining looks very good as well (presuming it is fill-free as you say). I would hazard a guess that it is a pipe that slipped through the factory without the Dunhill stamp. Alternatively, if you do find that it has a fill, it could be a pipe that got through to the last stages of acceptance in the quality control process, and then was rejected before the DUNHILL was stamped on it. If that is what happened, it would be strange that it got out of the factory. Too bad that John Loring, the "ultimate" Dunhill expert, passed away a couple of years ago. Perhaps Rich Esserman monitors this board and can offer an opinion???? [/QUOTE]
