Houtmodel pijp van klei met zadelsteel en afgeplatte spits met knoop. Geheel bedekt met donkerbruine lak. Zakje aan de bovenzijde dichtgeniet. Tekst: "Pipe Lore. The Aristocrat Pipe absorbs nicotine. After a few weeks of use scrape round the inside of bowl to the clay. Blow or wire bore clear and set aside. Repetition of this, using two pipes in turn, assures a sweet smoking. A small cinder the size of a garden pea, at the bottom of bowl before filling up keeps any pipe clean. The Aristocrat is a sturdy pipe but avoid knocking bowl harsly. Simply scrape with pocket knife. A strong tobacco is sweet in the Aristocrat pipe.". |
