Turkish Estates: AKB/Ali Meerschaum Smooth Bent Billiard 'Lee Van Cleef' (with Case) Tobacco Pipe
Product Number: 004-653-4099
Fans of Westerns, and specifically Spaghetti Westerns, are sure to love this offering from AKB. Informed by the meerschaum smoked by Lee Van Cleef's character, Colonel Douglas Mortimer, in Sergio Leone's For a Few Dollars, this bent Billiard is paired to an amber-hued stem, just like Van Cleef's. The pipe in the film looked to have been smoked quite regularly, so AKB has dressed this one with a smoky finish and darkened rim to give the impression that it's already started to patina. There's some rim darkening here, and the stem is not entirely flush with the shank, but otherwise condition is quite good.
