▲ The
two pipes above are exceptions: On one hand Connoisseur pipes were never
banded by the maker and on the other hand stampings on the stem were applied
only if there was no enough room on the shank.
This brand is named after
Edward F. Burak's
pipe shop (New York, closed 2009). He didn't make the pipes he sold but
he designed them.
Tony Pesante (NJ) or
Joe
Cortegiano were craftsmen who worked for Ed.
▲ (Left side) Converti,
Serie III
(Right side) 93, Italy
Due to the clear similarity between the markings (Serie
III) and those of
Mauro (Serie II) it is
possible to derive that this is an Armellini second.

91 Conway Standard
Made in London, England
Conway pipes were most probably made by
Singleton & Cole.
If te pipe is stamped with a shape number this probability almost becomes
a certitude.
According to Wilczak & Colwell (
op.
cit.)
Loewe had a line named Conway.
