Comments
| Stort van ongeveer twintig vrijwel identieke pijpen, allemaal gelijk gerookt en van hetzelfde soort maar met verschillende merken. Het is een wonder dat deze pijp gaaf is teruggevonden. Naast APM 20.332 waren alle andere pijpen in talloze stukken gebroken. Naar lengte een 17 duims pijp (44,2 centimeter). |
