I got this pipe the other day from [mention]Fr_Tom[/mention] (many thanks). It's an unstamped Royalton that Tom Douglas, aka [mention]ted[/mention], (RIP) picked up at the Sparta factory. Ed James, aka Ozark Southpaw, (RIP) ended up with it and took it to new heights. Here's the story ~~~> https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/drgrabo ... on#p132640
It's a great smoker, just in case you were wondering.

Congrats! I remember this one, got a good haul from the back room that year. A perfect pipe and momento of Ed and Tom. I had forgot Ed's "grandson" had an account, miss those guys.
