At first I thought it might have been Boris Karloff, but he's just too thin and doesn't a have a widows peak.
Let's go with Pa Kettle... Percy Kilbride?

Marry the right person, this one decision will determine 90% of your happiness.
Does a culture based on seperation and competition, of scientific sophistication and mideval religion, offer happiness even as it ravishes the Earth that sustains it?Posted 1 year ago # -
I know, but I cheated. I couldn't find a picture of him smoking a pipe. I found a couple where he is smoking a cigar.

Posted 1 year ago # -
Yep, first one is indeed Percy Kilbride,,... Pa Kettle!
I have one pic with his cob but its WAY small!The second one is....wait, I cheated too!

If you guys want to make it so we can't cheat, change the file name so the person's name isn't part of it.

How about this one then. One clue only....Born in London, 1872

First pic is definately Percy. Do any of you remember the technique Pa Kettle used to borrow tobacco and fill his pipe? He would kind of hold the pipe with his fist with the very top of the bowl being held by his little finger. This way most of his fist was above the pipe. Then he would start stuffing the borrowed tobacco in the top of his fist down into the pipe. When the pipe was full he would keep stuffing tobacco into his fist till it was full too. Then, with one quick motion, he would shove all the extra tobacco in his pocket... He was a great character and a credit to all us cheap pipe smokers!

What is the purpose of that pipe design?
Mason jars and bale top jars, mason jars and bale top jars.... that is all!

To aid in cleaning and reduce messiness. A pipe cleaner can be pushed through while smoking or it can be blown through like a spit valve.

Judging by the glasses and the beard.... looks like mid to late 80's....
Other than that I don't have a clue.
However; he does seem familiar.Posted 1 year ago # -
Hey pstlpkr, When I noticed the quick reply I thought maybe someone had nailed it already... which would have surprised me. If no one gets it I'll tell who it is in a couple of days... Here's another hint: "His last name is ironic".

Bingo, Patiobum.
His name is Toshiyuki "Harold" Sakata.
Just follow the link. He's an interesting individual.
I'm sure you'll remember him from a lot more than just Gold Finger, though they don't immediately come to mind.Posted 1 year ago # -
No, no. Not Kevin! No other guesses? I know many know of this guy. He's been talked about on the forum, inspired many 'a bowl full.
(I may not return to this thread. The photo at the top of Page 2 is just too disturbing!:)
