Most Popular Pipe?
Saw this at the Grabow site: This isn’t a model by model breakdown, but they are making 200,000 pipes a year. Perhaps this could be a starting point in figuring this out. I also found this blurb on the net, but I was unable to access the site from which it came: Also found this at smoking...- Ryan

Cheap Cigar Tobacco in a Tiny Pipe?
I didn’t explain that very well. I have never met the guys. I don’t frequent the place, and one of the employees there told me about it. I don’t fully remember, but I think it was something about not being able to get pipe tobacco where they were. I think it just became their habit after that...- Ryan

Cheap Cigar Tobacco in a Tiny Pipe?
At the local cigar (and pipe) shop here in town there are a couple of veterans who apparently picked up a habit during the Vietnam war that they still have today. They smoke cigars out of pipes. I’m not sure why, I don’t know the guys to ask them why they do what they do, I just know that they...- Ryan

The Four Hundred Marxman Pipe Owner's Thread
I found this Wikipedia article that is interesting. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Four_Hundred_(Gilded_Age)#:~:text=Reportedly%2C%20Ward%20McAllister%20coined%20the,the%20ballrooms%20of%20high%20society.

The Four Hundred Marxman Pipe Owner's Thread
I now have two of them. The top one is stamped 64 B and the bottom one is stamped F I. No number, unless the “I” is a Roman numeral. Of course, both are stamped “The Four Hundred”. The top one has a 1” bore and weighs 57.5g. The bottom one has a 7/8” bore and weighs 65g. The bottom one fits...- Ryan

Indiana’s Excise Tax
It’s interesting, because I can now buy SWR, Half and Half, and others at a B&M for less than I can via mail order. Not much less, but it is cheaper. For example, I can buy Half and Half for $5.66 after tax locally. At SP, that would cost me $6.45 after the excise tax and state tax.- Ryan

Indiana’s Excise Tax
I live in Indiana, I certainly noticed the tax. Since it is based on the wholesale price, it usually ends up being about 15% on top of the total on average. One thing it has taught me is the wholesale prices of various tobacco blends. I don’t like it, but at least they don’t add it at B&Ms...- Ryan

In Defence of WAYS
It’s a way of stating what would be very obvious if we were actually hanging out and smoking in the same place. I like seeing pipe brands I don’t know and hearing of tobacco I don’t about. No conversation required, just a chance to observe what other people like to smoke and what they like to...- Ryan

Who Else is Addicted to Algerian Briar?
I think I have some pre-54 on the way, but how can you be sure of what year they are? I didn’t find definitive answers on the net to this point. If they are USA made, is that pre-54? -
Who Else is Addicted to Algerian Briar?
I hope I do, because all of your talk about Marxman pipes has caused me to pursue a couple of them. I need to know what all the fuss is about! -
Georg Jensen Pipes - Models, Shapes, Info, and Mysteries
I have one that just says Jensen (capital J others letters small) centered over MADE IN DENMARK. It is also stamped 95 with no other stampings on the pipe. It is hard to see the stamping in the photos, I did the best I could.
