About This Pipe
The year is 1938: Walt Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the first cell-animated feature-length in motion picture history, is released in the United States; Oil is discovered in Saudi Arabia; and the cow (from which this horn stem came from) was consumed grilled, stewed, fried, baked, and otherwise in gastronomic indulgence before the understanding of a balanced diet.
This billiard has two stems. The first is the original horn stem, by Dunhill, but it cracked over time, and was replaced with an iffy-quality replacement stem that doesn't fit very well. I love the blast on this piece, and perhaps this would be good to smoke as-is, or sent to a repairman to either fix the original stem, or make an appropriate replacement.
