Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:37256254 | Featured Refinements: Rumph Studio Pottery |
Color: White | Original/Reproduction: Vintage Original |
Vintage unmarked Jim Rumph 1975 Mind Circus Gremlin Bong Water Pipe
Came in various sizes mostly 6.5 & 9.5"
dimensions - 7.5" tall, knee to knee 4.75" , base 3.5"x 2.75" & hole is 1.75"
The reasons I am convinced this is an original unsigned Rumph is because :
1. I replace the grommet because of it's age which took some time because of the hardened rez build up. I noticed it had the same exact grommet as the one I replaced in ...my Rumph - Fiddler bong
2. In the 70's & 80's there was no internet so most likely knock offs of his work weren't made till a decade or 2 after his death in the early 90's.
3. The inside looks like someone used this frequently for a good decade or 2 & there was a 2-1/2" bud inside which looked like it was it there since at least the 80's , looked petrified & turned to dust with the slightest touch.
This auction is for the item pictured above
