This is a truly impressive Barling Guinea Grain. It's hard to date this one exactly as there is no "S" in Barling but it is in script. Additionally, there is no shape number but there is a T.V.F stamp. There is also a very odd looking faded box stamp as seen in picture #10. I've never seen this so if anyone has an idea what this is please reach out to me! All nomenclature aside, if you take a look at picture #7 you will see this beauty has amazing straight grain. The walls are super th...ick on this ODA size Billiard and the rim slopes inwards. The shank tapers and there is a gold band that I am unsure was factory placed or aftermarket but it does cover the "T" in T.V.F. The stem is dual taper acrylic and might be a replacement. Overall a stellar Guinea Grain! Nomenclature: BARLING (in script) over GUINEA GRAIN, T.V.F Dimensions: 6" Long, 2 1/4" Tall, 7/8" Chamber W, 1 7/8" Chamber D Condition: Excellent. Chamber is clean and sound and re-carbonized. Stem is mint.
