‘45 – ‘47 Peterson “Shamrock” #53

This is one of the pipes I recently received from my Mom. She found out that I was making pipes and gave me the pipes that were my Grandfathers. I restored this pipe and researched it’s history. I found out that it was made between 1945 and 1947 in Dublin, Ireland. I smoked it for the first time today and while my Grandpa didn’t appear before me, which would have been cool, I’d have liked to take a walk with him in the snow and tell him about myself. Unfortunately we never met. I’d have told him I’ll take good care of your pipes.
