I've come to the home of the experts; kneeling in subjugation.
I did find some limited info on line regarding the K&P Peterson brand markings, and used a search here on these forums as well, but did not fine a definitive answer for what I'm inquiring about.
Can anyone tell me if the K&P Peterson markings are still being used?
AND-
If not,m when did they stop marking pipes in such a manner?
Thanks!

Re: Info on K&P Peterson
To what markings are you referring? Hallmarks or pipe 'line' stampings?bornagainbriar wrote:I've come to the home of the experts; kneeling in subjugation.

If you're still looking for Peterson pipes (I'm guessing you're looking for pre Republic?) I use these sites.

Peterson Logos and Markings

and
Assay Office Dublin Hallmarks for silver bands (note, bands might be made a few years before they're put on a pipe... when in doubt, trust the COM mark on the pipe)

On a side note, I picked up a pre Republic Peterson for $12 yesterday on Ebay.
