This year's Christmas Pipe is a Military Billiard. It has a  slightly canted forward with a barely discernable  bend. A medium size bowl and at 40 g is comfortable in the hand or mouth A great showcase for grain this pipe comes with a Cumberland or Black Acyrlic  ferrule. This pipe is meant to be  taken places as it so easily broken apart  and will fit in a pocket while traveling. The pipe also will pass a pipe cleaner with the  stem  in the pipe.

THE FIRST CHRISTMAS PIPE WAS PRODUCED FOR JOHN B. HAYES TOBACCONIST IN 1983. IT WAS A MODIFICATION OF A PIPE DAN SHAPE FROM ONE OF THEIR OLD CATALOGS. I THINK 6 OR 8 WERE MADE. AS THIS WAS A LIMITED EDITION NONE WERE EVER MADE AGAIN. THIS TRADITION HAS CONTINUED EVERY YEAR . SINCE THEN, MORE AND MORE HAVE BEEN MADE EVERY YEAR GENERALLY AVERAGING 75 PIPES.1987 WAS THE RECORD YEAR WHEN 144 WERE ORDERED.

THESE PIPES ARE IMMINENTLY COLLECTABLE.. PREVIOUS EDITIONS HAVE BEEN FOUND AT PIPE SHOWS AND A FEW COLLECTORS HAVE ALL OF THEM.THE PIPES ARE STAMPED WITH THE AMERICAN LOGO AND BELOW THAT CHRISTMAS PIPE AND THE YEAR IT WAS MADE.. GENERALLY, THEY HAVE BEEN CLASSIC SHAPES THAT HAVE BEEN STYLIZED . EACH SHAPE IS UNIQUE AND HAS NEVER BEEN DUPLICATED ! CHECK OUT THESE PAGES.

I HAVE DONE A PICTORIAL OF THE STAGES OF THE CARVING OF THE 1996 CHRISTMAS PIPE. 2013
