Vintage Falcon Aluminium & Briar Standard System Pipe. Interchangeable Bowl.

A vintage, quality pipe in aluminium and briar by British pipe makers Falcon.  Stamped "Falcon, Made in England" to the aluminium shank.  In overall good vintage condition.  Cleaned and sanitized.  Kindly view images above for more detail.

The Falcon pipe was created in 1936 by American engineer Kenly Bugg. However, the production of the Falcon was limited during World War II. In 1949, George Hunt took over the production and marketing of the Falcon pipe, and by 1954, 6 million Falcon pipes had been sold in the USA. By 1961, production of the Falcon pipe had moved to England. In 1964, the Falcon Alco pipe was launched, and in 1967, the Falcon Brentford pipe was introduced but was withdrawn from the market in 1979. In 1968, production of the Falcon in Chicago stopped, and in 1977, the Falcon International pipe was introduced, featuring a removable mouthpiece and filter.

I have on auction a large estate lifelong collection of quality tobacco smoking pipes dating from the 1950's to 1980's.  Apart from 3 or 4 of them (faults mentioned specifically) the condition is good to very good.  The collection has clearly been well-maintained and lovingly cared for.

Length : 14.5cm
