BBB NM (1990 Make) 653 Sandblast Billiard with Acrylic Estate Pipe

Based on the stampings we are confident this BBB billiard estate pipe was made for a Danish pipe smoking contest in 1990.  Fitted with a thin band of acrylic which does have a crack but is still firmly anchored as an insert to the stem, this sweepingly tapered and sandblasted billiard has a good sized chamber and features a draft hole at the very bottom of the slightly conical design.  Open and smooth in the draw, this lightweight clencher has a thin bit and just a little inner rim darkening.
