The limited edition Graham Bell pipes have been created and manufactured to commemorate the centenary of the passing of Alexander Graham Bell and to inform about his most famous invention, the telephone.
The Graham Bell pipe is a Stand-up Quaint shape in Group 4 (4), with the pipe bowl reminiscent of the shape of the earpiece of an early telephone. It is fitted with an engraved Sterling silver band and each pipe is accompanied by a solid, Sterling Silver tamper showing in finest detail an early telephone.
The highly collectable Graham Bell pipes & tampers are presented in a prestigious leather-bound book and come with a numbered and hand-signed limited edition certificate.
This series is strictly limited to world-wide only 100 pipes:
- 25 pipes in Bruyere
- 25 pipes in Cumberland
- 25 pipes in Chestnut
- 25 pipes in Shell Briar
The No.1 editions are, as always, not for sale and will be kept in our White Spot archive.
Alexander Graham Bell, born on 3 March 1847 in Edinburgh, Scotland, was a notable engineer, scientist, and important inventor.
Already as a child, Graham showed great interest in science and experiments and particular fields of interest were (sign) speech, sound, and elocution - possibly influenced by the deafness of his mother and later his wife. At age 11 he entered the Royal High School
at Edinburgh, but, left school at age 15 without graduating as he did not enjoy the compulsory curriculum
On 7 March 1876, he was awarded the first US patent for the invention of the telephone (see below).
Later in life, other significant works and ground-breaking inventions were in hydrofoils, optical telecommunication and aeronautics.
In 1885, he co-founded the American Telephone & Telegraph Company (AT&T).
He also was the second president of the National Geographic Society and was instrumental in the success of its magazine National Geographic.
He passed away on 2 August 1922 in Beinn Bhreagh, Nova Scotia, Canada.
This is pipe 25/25.
In 1915, the famous white spot pipe range was introduced when customers had trouble knowing which way to insert the handmade vulcanite mouthpieces, In solution of this Alfred Dunhill ordered white spots to be placed on the upper side of the stem. This would now become a trademark of Dunhill pipes and the “white spot” soon became known as a symbol of quality.
Comes complete in a White Spot pouch and box.
This pipe has been individually photographed, so that the pipe you see in the picture is the pipe you will receive.
