The Second World War was a difficult time. The rationing that the war promoted was so draconian that Dunhill suffered from the scarcity of raw material until the beginning of the 50 years in the post-war period. | The Second World War was a difficult time.

Dunhill published catalogues annually, even during the First World War and was each more elegant than the other. However, from 1940 to 1950 there was cessation, with no catalogs during this period. Saved only by two catalogs of "gifts", distributed in North America around 1943 and at the end of the 1940, in Great Britain. | Dunhill published catalogues annually, even during the First World War and was each more elegant than the other.

Still according to Loring, the pipes of this period that are found nowadays and that are equipped with vulcanite stems, probably had the stem replaced. It would not be surprising if after the war Dunhill had – routinely – replaced the horn stems with the vulcanite, with little or no cost. | Still according to Loring, the pipes of this period that are found nowadays and that are equipped with vulcanite stems, probably had the stem replaced.

< | <center>'''About Nomenclature '''</center> | ||
<br> | |||
Loring defends a hypothesis in his article called "The Hypothetical WWII Pipe", in which he considers that during this period the following nomenclature was used: | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
<center>'''DUNHILL SHELL MADE IN ENGLAND'''</center> | |||
<center>'''PATENT Nº 1341418/20'''</center> | |||
<br> | |||
No date code or any other nomeclature, like the inner tube, for example. According to the available historiography, the 1341418/20 patent begins to appear in 1920, almost always followed by another patent, as an example: PATENT MARCH.9.15 1341418/20. In rare cases he appeared alone. | |||
