About This Pipe

This dapper Group "6" bears the stamping of the shape "107", which is the prince with tapered bit. I'll grant you the "tapered bit" addition is a bit of a redundancy (when was the last time that you saw a saddle bit prince?). Still we have to account for the "1", don't we? Having got that silliness out of the way, I really can't look at this pipe and think "prince". I mean, where is the graceful arc of shank and bit that hallmarks a prince? I guess that would leave my description as "a generously sized, straight squat apple, with an eye-popping grain". You are correct, sir. I *do* need to get a life.
