This pipe I purchased in 1969, a few years ago the thin chrome plating was peeling badly. So a real good sanding and a flat black spray was used that will withstand 1,250 degrees, same paint that's used on high end BBQ grills.

Edward G Robinson blend in my restored 1969 Grabow Viking pipe, yup, that's one of the original 5 bowls I purchased as a set.



KEEP ON PUFFING!!!

I've mentioned this pipe prior but never took the time to post the picture of some of the fills. It's a natural dark color after over 250 smokes and I use Bee's wax on the briar often. In this picture you see 7 big fills, the pipe has a total of 11 fills, this pipe was also shipped to me without and hole in the stem. Now that's quality control :lol!: :lol!:
It's a good smoker now but NOT worth the $70.00 I paid.
