Shellcraft

 

  (Underside) 5605 Shellcraft Kaywoodie

Stampings of a Shellcraft pipe crafted in the early 1930s with a Synchro-stem system. The pipe is sandblasted while the early Shellcraft was rusticated. The "drinkless logo" on the stem has been replaced by a clover and a 4 digit shape number has been attributed indicating thus the entry of the Shellcraft into Kaywoodie's lines.

(Left side) Super Grain (Over...) Kaywoodie
 (Right side) Imported Briar, 5131C
 This pipe is stamped with a four digit number which situates its production year between 1931 and 1938. Because of the introduction of the "Imported Briar" stamping in 1935, the pipe could have been manufactured between 1935 and 1938.

 

 Kaywoodie (Over...) Super Grain, Imported Briar
Compare the stampings of these two pipes: Early Super Grains were stamped Super Grain over top of Kaywoodie.

White Briar

 

 (Left side) Kaywoodie White Briar

(No line stamping)
