USA, 1950s

An American classic from the 1950s, the era of rock’n’roll, big beautiful cars with loud radio receivers (is the series name a hint on the Oldsmobile Starfire? :-) ) and the blossoming of many American pipe brands. Nevertheless, this Dr. Grabow’s Starfire with its wire carved finish can’t be confused with any other pipe from that time.

Pipe markings “STARFIRE \ DR. GRABOW”
Length 12.3 cm (4.84″)
Bowl Height 5.3 cm (2.09″)
Outside Diameter 3.6 cm (1.42″)
Chamber Diameter 1.8 cm (0.71″)
Chamber Depth 3.9 cm (1.54″)
Weight 39 gr.
Briar, vulcanite stem, aluminium air cooler.

The pipe was accurately smoked, it has been thoroughly cleaned, polished, sanitized and now is ready for a new life. The drilling is noticeably out of center, nevertheless the pipe can serve as an inexpensive and unassuming tool for occasional smoke.
