About This Pipe

Sold in store 9/15. I was going to make a joke about apples being smaller in England due to less sun (pardon me, it's from a Richard Greene Robin Hood episode from the 1950's. Friar Tuck had to allow Robin to shoot a piece of fruit off of his head, and said it was too small due to there not being enough sun). Where was I going with this? Nowhere, really. Many pipes from this maker tend to be on the large side, so seeing this little fellow is a nice change of pace. While not small by any means (it's probably a group 4), it's the right perfect size for many pipers.
