GBD Collector Fantasy 9588

England, 1950-70s

Legendary GBD offered not only an incredible variety of shapes and grades but was constantly open for any innovations and any consumer tastes. And when after the WWII perspex became a very popular material for self made mouthpieces, toys and souvenirs, GBD initiated a new option for many pipe grades – the perspex stems. We’re glad to offer one of such pipes, made most probably in 1970’s, but not later 1980. It looks really hi-tech and modern, doesn’t it?

The pipe markings are “Collector \ (GBD) \ Fantasy \ LONDON ENGLAND \ 9588”. The length is 13.5 cm, bowl’s hight is 4.8 cm. External and internal diameters of the bowl are 4.1 cm and 2.1 cm. The depth is 3.6 cm and this pipe weights 45 gr. Briar, perspex stem, no filter. The chamber shows very moderate wear.
