Full Bent Cased WDC Bakelite

I guess you can see my pipe collection is trending in a specific direction. This is a WDC French Briar Bakelite. And it's a Lockmount tenon as well.
The diamond shank gives the bowl a sharp edged bottom or keel. Hence I call the shape a schooner or scoop. Seems like it was popular in the late 19th early 20th centuries. It appears it disappeared in the 30s.
