Are you referring to the "Super Q" pipes? If so they look like a gbd with a metal military mount on them

Here is a post about a restoration of a "Super Q." It has some good pictures and narrative if this is what you are asking about.

This one in Steve's blog is a looker, and it has a 7/8 in bowl. I am sure it would be out of my tax bracket to actually have one, but this is a nice pipe.
