Vintage Handmade by Royal Aten Slightly canted, partially rusticated square shank billiard. In great smoked condition, probably dating from the 40s possibly earlier. Jet black Vulcanite stem with Zero chatter and a Single yellow dot which Royal put in all his stem’s. Looks familiar? yes.
Royal Aten is the name of the Pipe maker and he would eventually open Darby pipes and tobacco in Illinois in 1945, I would assume he made this prior to making “Darby” branded pipes.
