Interesting piece. What's the story behind it?

Burnett purchased this piece from Tom Davis in the late 70s. CJ O Neil purchased from Burnett.... Ohio piece.

Wow that base is thin is it drilled all the way ?

You sure that ain't a handle off a hose reel? Really, that is beyond words, man. Beautiful piece.

Yes it is. The platform is so thin it’s mind boggling.

Beautiful pipe! Tom Davis is top notch too.

How deep is the bowl? Looks like you could fill it up and smoke all week. Gary

I never measured this so I did this morning. Bowl is around 4” deep. This would be the type of pipe you may pass around to a bunch of people. I will post a ridiculously large pipe with a ridiculously small hole. I call it the one hitter.

That pipe is amazing. I find a few Intrusive Mound artifacts at my farm, which is about 30 miles west of the Scioto river, overlooking the Ohio. Intrusive Mound and Hopewell are the same people, as the Hopewell are the Adena............
