Scarce Earliest made HARDY Bros Alnwick ANGLERS PIPE

This is very scarce as I’ve only ever seen the later smooth Briar Anglers Pipes by Hardy Bros, this is a 1920s sandblasted briar pipe as introduced and possibly made by Dunhill England for Hardys, Hardy Bros introduced the first range of Anglers pipes in 1925 so this could possibly be one of their first pipes. It’s in good original condition and stamped on the underside “ THE ANGLERS PIPE , HARDY’S ALNWICK PAT.No.274305 MADE IN ENGLAND. No.2. A museum piece as I’ve never seen another. Great collectors accessory.
