The earliest Dr. Grabow pipes are stamped with both Linkman's and Dr. Grabow, described as Bruyere, or Italian Briar.
Pre-1944 model names included the SPECIAL, the DELUXE (this pipe), and the SUPREME.
The Linkman's stamp was discontinued around 1944.

VanRoy
The VanRoy Pipe Company, originally located in the Empire State Building in New York City, began as its own pipe company, and the originator of the Ajustomatic feature better known from its later use in Dr. Grabow pipes. No evidence can be found of their existence prior to October, 1944. When Henry Leonard & Thomas Inc. moved to Sparta, North Carolina in 1953, in addition to purchasing the rights to the Dr. Grabow line, they also purchased other New York pipe firms, including the VanRoy company. After moving to Sparta, HL&T at some point revived the VanRoy name for a cheaper line of pipes, but the later pipes did not have the ajustomatic feature, and instead a push tenon.
The stem logo for VanRoy was a fleur de lis, originally filled, and the pipes were marked as patent pending for the early ajustomatics. In 1949 the pipes began to carry a patented stamp, with the 2461905 patent number representing the 1949 patenting of the ajustomatic feature, as well as a stamp stating "Magic Cake", but no fleur de lis was on the stems. After 1953, pipes have been seen with a fleur de lis again on the stem, but an open design, not a filled one.
According to the 1944 ad there were 4 models offered, as follows:
- ARISTA... 3.50
- BARD... 5.00
- COURIER... 7.50
- DUMONT... 10.00
VANROY 與 Dr.Grabow 是收購或合併前的產物,
Dr.Grabow在美國是間歷史悠久的煙斗製造大廠。
VANROY 曾是一家獨立品牌煙斗公司,
其中緣由請自行參考上面英文說明。
這支早期斗石楠木瘤年格夠老材質細密緊實,
最後一道拋光工序後...鏡面效果非常理想 !
斗身上廠徽為 VANROY 獨立時的廠徽,
與 Dr.Grabow 合併後廠徽則換成黑桃型。
此斗是此波老娘私藏釋出的特殊絕版斗型,
是兩家斗廠尚未合併前原 VANROY 的原廠斗。
廠徽仍保持原 VANROY 的廠徽標誌。
【三千元整】稀罕的絕版早期斗值得珍藏。
