Hawkman! (This is a panel of Hawkman's alter ego lighting a pipe from a 1940's comic starring Hawkman. Hawkman was created by Gardner Fox. Hawkman's alter ego is: Carter Hall! Me thinks that Mr. Fox was a pipe smoker!)
Gotta love the fresh air comment!

@bucknuts17

I do think he should be on the list. he wrote 300 books Worked with Churchill in phsyops programs to fight the nazi. and has many other accomplishments. And contrary to popular belife he was not satanic he was a Thelemite.

After getting up, Kant would drink one or two cups of tea — weak tea. With that, he smoked a pipe of tobacco. The time he needed for smoking it “was devoted to meditation.” Apparently, Kant had formulated the maxim for himself that he would smoke only one pipe, but it is reported that the bowls of his pipes increased considerably in size as the years went on.

Yeah but Jimmy Page bought Crowley's house and he's mentioned in Bowie's song, "Quicksand", so despite personal feelings, he's still pretty famous!
Tolkien, of course. I'm sure there are a ton of classic authors who smoked the briar, as well as many famous preachers (Spurgeon for sure). It's amazing how common the pipe was up until recent history. Been watching "Little House on the Prairie" with my daughters, and Michael Landon has a pipe in just about every episode of the first season. First season of the Andy Griffith Show had pipes on racks in the drug store and a customer asking for a pouch of tobacco.
According to the movie, "Gettysburg", General John Bufford was a pipe smoker. Of course, I doubt he smoked a Dr Grabow w/ an acrylic stem as seen in the move ;-)
