       Thanks for looking and as usual I will combine postage if you buy more than one of my items from this auction. European tracked postage is £9.85 and for the rest of the world is £11.85......I have had to increase charges following Royal Mail price increases in April but will still combine any ...number of pipes for the price of one.On 10-Jul-20 at 19:20:16 BST, seller added the following information:      This is a Beautiful Refurbished Lightly Smoked Rusticated Dr.McQuade 1/2 Bent Billiard, London Made. The pipe was part of a mostly 1970-80s collection I bought last year. Benjamin Wade began making pipes in Leeds in 1860 with a pledge to make "High quality pipes without fill or flaw", and certainly until 1962, despite being bombed out and rebuilt in the second world war, Ben Wade pipes lived up to that promise. Lanes of New York bought both Ben Wade and Charatan in 1962, but by 1965 had almost closed down both. Dunhill bought both brands, Ben Wade made in the London Charatan Factory until 1988, and I think it most likely this Dr.McQuade dates from between 1965 and 1988. This 1/2 Bent Billiard is Rusticated and stained a deep brown/black, the bowl rim crisp and un-marked, the lovely briar graining seen in the smooth nameplate under the shank. The stem has a long Filter Stinger, the faint Dr.McQuade Logo, and is in perfect used condition.      The bowl needed no reaming but was cleansed anyway, the stem and Filter Stinger were fully sanitised to make the pipe ready to smoke as soon as you receive it, before the whole pipe was lightly polished and waxed to give the Beautiful Finish you can see in the photos. The pipe sits snugly in the hand, draws and will smoke perfectly, is so well balanced and very tactile.
