Egg "Plácido"

Post by maxmil »

This time I dedicate pipe to the film "Plácido" (1961) by Luis García Berlanga, in which a carrier (Placido) encounters great difficulty in paying the letter corresponding to the first term of his motorcar change. A current movie, given the current economic crisis we are experiencing in Spain and parts of Europe, especially as the motto of the Christmas season as part of the plot of the movie is "Feel a poor at his table."
Best regards.
Félix

En esta ocasión le dedico la pipa a la película "Plácido" (1961), de Luis García Berlanga, en la que un transportista (Plácido) se encuentra con grandes dificultades para pagar la letra de cambio correspondiente al primer plazo de su motocarro. Un película muy actual, dada la actual crisis económica que estamos pasando en España y parte de Europa, sobre todo porque el lema de la campaña navideña que forma parte de la trama de la película es "Siente a un pobre a su mesa".
Saludos.
Félix

You've got a slight gap between shank and stem (perhaps tearout?). And there are some obvious sanding scratches at the bottom of the bowl.

Very cool shape, Félix. Looks like it would be a very comfortable pipe.
