Prince vs Apple

[FredS]

Here's a pack of princes I made a while back. They still needed polished and stem bending. Uncle Bob's wife bought him one of the bottom two, I don't remember which. Those two are yuge for this shape. A couple others may have gone to CPS'ers too. The one second from bottom has a large band of swirly white bakelite that will turn to that creamy yellow color seen at the bottom of the picture. I have an set of old steak knives with what I thought was yellow handles, but when I cut into them I was surprised to find them white.

I am a lover of the prince shape pipe. It's a bit more delicate than an apple shape.

Indeed, squire.

I have a Dunhill Prince from the mid-1980s. Straight stem, which is not aligned with the traditional Prince stem of 1/4 or less of bend.

I also have a SlowToke Prince that some notable pipe makers have said it is the Plutonic Prince shape.

Is this bragging? Feels like bragging.

OK. So. Like.

I'm totally bragging.

If you are going to brag about your Prince Pipes you need to post a pic of them...Dunhill and a Teipen...gotta see pic of those
