About the maker:
GBD pipes were the most affordable high end
pipe of the 1940's to 1970's. A rival in quality, design, and price to
Dunhill. Smokers' Haven was the main retail supplier for GBD's until the
early 1980's. GBD produced consistently well made pipes, almost entirely
of Algerian briar. In the late 1960's to late 1970's, they introduced the
"Collector" and "Unique" lines, made primarily by Horry
Jameson who was skilled in freehand design. GBD Pipes are excellent smokers and
unique in design.
