T.U.C.O.P.S. was "The Universal Coterie of Pipe Smokers", founded by Tom Dunn in 1964. TPSE was "The Pipe Smoker's Ephemeris" which Tom published until his death in 2006.

The TUCOPS pin is awesome, im envious! I always wanted a patch of the logo. Very cool, thanks for sharing!

I have a card and pin like that somewhere. Might frame them up too, I like the idea.

I have my pin, card, and a set of TUCOPS. Tom was one of the big contributors to our hobby. Although I never met him, I considered him a friend.

John Seiler must have been searching the archives!! A very good resurrection there John.

I must've missed this two years ago as well. And I still retain all of my semi-irregular issues of TUCOPS, including my pin and membership card. Boy, do I miss those publications. I also have the compiled Volumes I and II that are incredible bibles of pipe information. There happens to be an issue on eBay at present ending shortly. IMO anyone really interested in pipe lore/collecting/smoking should be jumping all over those old tomes.
