Finished cleaning up a Willmer AB estate, an interesting take on the
bulldog shape. It's your basic bulldog, but no beading and all angles
and corners are softly rounded, with a freehand style push stem.

It's nice to get an estate pipe that's been well cared for. A little
reaming of a fairly heavy English/Oriental cake (from the bowl aroma),
a little hand buffing on the stem, and a very quick and easy alcohol
scrub got it ready for a bowl of Consummate Gentleman. Nice draw, good
stem to mortise match, a definite keeper.

Off to work in an hour or so. I may be creeping home in a rain/snow
mix around midnight.

Just another nice basic flake.
