Don't know, but Popeye isn't tougher.



Peterson or WDC Wellington military with sterling ferrule? The stem looks very Wellington but the bowl looks like something else. The army bit and stout bowl/stem are a good match for the rigors of living on the trail as death hound from hell .

I'd put my money on Wellington. I'll look and see if I can find anything

Re: Who made the pipe in The GOOD, BAD and Ugly?

I think I found the pipe, or one very close:

Re: Who made the pipe in The GOOD, BAD and Ugly?

I think your are right. Were you able to compare it to the new #309 Pipe at Cup of Joes?
The color seems closer.
Its shaped like the Wellington also.

Re: Who made the pipe in The GOOD, BAD and Ugly?

I'm looking harder and refer back to my earlier post. It looks like a WDC Wellington with a different bowl - probably a Pete. Leave it to a pipe smoker (like Van Cleef must have been) to mix and match a couple of pipes to get it the way he wanted it. WDC made so many Wellington versions that, back in the 60's, they may have offered a taller bowl.

Re: Who made the pipe in The GOOD, BAD and Ugly?

I don't know, but that one at the bottom of your post is almost spot on.

Guy I worked with, a million years ago, in Florida, was once dating LVC's daughter. Hell, even she was tough!

Gadzooks! Gee, for your friend's sake I hope she didn't look like a devil sick of sin like his movie persona did!

And yes, I agree, the one at the bottom of that post certainly seems to be the culprit.

Re: Who made the pipe in The GOOD, BAD and Ugly?

I think van Cleef was a pipe hacker; he looked VERY comfortable with his pipe. Prob'ly got a Pete with a P-lip, hated it and jammed in a bit from an old WDC sitting in the back of the drawer. Lee was that kinda guy.

Re: Who made the pipe in The GOOD, BAD and Ugly?

Whew, thank goodness no! I own a lot of (how not to offend?) "budget" pipes and
Lord knows I don't need another one. I hope the proud new owner enjoys it half as much as I almost did. (I'm not even sure that made any sense)
