I do not own this one. I found it on ebay but am not about to spend the $125 the seller is asking for it. I really like it. The engraver did a fantastic job. Just thought I'd share one that I felt was really cool...

Very nice!

Too bad it was not more affordable. It would look good in your collection.

To me, the pipe and smoke detract mightily.

Still waiting for one with a glass insulator on it LOL!

Liking the engraved one as well, but nowadays if someone wants a hobby, it's not all that hard to do with a homemade mechanical engraver. Been looking them online. A few years ago I talked with a hobo nickel engraver who takes pride in doing his all by hand, and he was saying how the easy way is "cheapening" the market for them.

I swear that it wouldn't surprise me if someone once-upon-a-time stamped some. If they are out there one will come out of the woodwork eventually.

After seeing everything you have posted, I admit I do not think it beyond being possible anymore!

I am not sure I could sell enough to cover the cost or I might be tempted

Those must have been a cross promotion with JCPenney.
