Got this lovely specimen sitting in the rack. It is ceramic with a 70's green glaze and a plastic stem. No markings whatsoever.

I can't tell if it has been smoked but it has disccoloration in the bowl like somebody tried it. Wasn't me.

I have a similar looking ceramic pipe that I picked up in a box of estate pipes. Mine is marked LePeltier USA on the bottom. The shank and stem are a bit different. Mine is unsmoked. Apparently the company remains in business, at least there is a website. http://www.lepeltier-pipes.com/index.html

I specifically remember an avocado green Oster blender we had. There was other stuff too, not just green, but beige, rust, harvest gold, mustard yellow, earthy brown...those colors were everywhere. Stylish. lol

It was definitely mix and match with the earth tones. America had gone almost completely hippie!
