'''Notes:'''
*'''1'''. the pictured pipes are not in scale with each other.

*'''2'''. heavily framed shapes indicate the semi giant shapes commonly termed today ODAs.

*'''3'''.(4) & (5) indicate approximate group number size.

*'''4'''. extremely rare is rarer then quite rare which in turn is rarer then rare.

*'''5'''.  all rarity indication go to the 1950s/1960s period  for  later, less collectible, years the situation may be quite different.

*'''6'''. rarity does not necessarily translate into premium values  non-semi giant shapes generally find little interest even at low prices even if extremely rare, and the same can hold true for less popular semi giant shapes.  Conversely, relatively common but highly desirable shapes such as the 835 will sell at a premium because of their popularity.  In other words value is the product of supply & demand, not rarity.

*'''7'''. old inventory finished in 70s/80s refers to factory inventories of unfinished bowls that were set aside in the 1950s due to a lack of consumer demand (not all pipes later finished from these bowls were exactly consistent with the original shapes).
