I read this on my Nook years ago, but the Nook is dead now, and I'm glad to finally have a hardcopy.

With a great avatar comes great misidentification
Got some Mammoth Cave tonight...its a chewing tobacco twist that I saw @Mike H cut up and smoke, I think I'll give that a shot. Also picked up some Garrett Scotch Snuff which I didn't know my tobacco shop carried.

Finally, the day I've all been waiting for. My Smoking Pipes order came.

Of course, the star of the show - and the reason for the order - is my first and only Dunhill. 1980 Cumberland.

The description said it was a small pipe, but it's a bit smaller than I expected. It's a Group 1, but not being familiar with Dunhills I have no frame of reference for Group sizes. The measurements given are equally meaningless because I can't visualize them. I just had to wait until the pipe was in hand to see how small it was. But it's not too small. Just a little smaller than I expected. Here it is with a MM Legend, which most should be familiar with, and a Medico Gold Crest Lovat, which I used to consider fairly small, and which I thought would be a comparable size to the Dunhill.
