PETERSON’S Dublin 3

July 24, 2017December 29, 2018

Ireland, 1910-15

This compact “military” billiard has recently celebrated its century. Except the name of the maker and the city name, there are no other markings on the pipe, in particular a designation of the manufacturing country (COM). Such situation was in 1910-15, when the Peterson patent has already expired, but the stamp “Made in Ireland” wasn’t applied yet. A rarity!

The pipe markings are “PETERSON’S \ DUBLIN \ 3”, “K&P \ \ PETERSON \ DUBLIN”. The length is 13.4 cm (5.28″), bowl’s height is 3.8 cm (1.5″). External diameter of the bowl is 3.0 cm (1.18″), internal diameter is 1.7 cm (0.67″). The depth is 3.4 cm (1.34″) and this pipe weights 22 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, no filter.

Unknown origin A very interesting and ingenious construction: an apple-shaped spigot pipe with the gold filled collar and feets. So the traditional shape has been transformed into a sitter: it will reliably sit on the table while you pour some more brandy into your glass. 1/20 14K G.F. on the collar means the gold layer…

USA We can’t confirm that this pipe was cut out of briar of 1920 (but who knows, might by the carver did really found old stocks of “Doctor Grabow” or “Medico”), but the material was selected undoubtedly intelligently and with the excellent taste. Such grain could be a subject of pride for any Danish pipe…

Ireland, 1972 “While the Premier System stamp was formally announced in our 1945 catalogue, the design itself dates to our original System grading system, where it was known simply as the Second Grade, a higher-tiered System pipe meant to bridge the gap between our entry-level System and Deluxe models. … the Premier System pipe incorporates…
