Manufactured some time between 1964 and the mid-1970s when Meerschaum Corporation was closed by Amboseli pipes.
The pipe is made of African meerschaum from the deposit found in Kilimanjaro. This type of meerschaum is tougher and less porous than the Turkish variety.
Without any faults, unsmoked and rare.
