    Fribourg & Treyer - Cut Blended Plug

    Well, since thus thread is talking Fribourg and Treyer (aka The Old Pipe Shop) I thought I would add some history to the discussion. In 1920 a book was published with pictures of F&T on their 200th anniversary. In 1974, another book for their 250+. Both books are in my library. I was in the...

    My First Pipe Cabinet

    You know when you are young you have NO concept of 50 years or even how fast it comes. So no, didn't even think about it then. I did a doctoral fellowship in Zurich at the C.G. Jung Institute. Jung always taught that one's soul is also in the things we make (as in "soul food"). I just know if it...

    Dunhill Pipe Tamper

    I can echo the comments all ready made. Dunhill made these for years, starting when hard to say. Dunhill is out if the pipe and tobacco business altogether now. I was in their London shop in 2016, which is owned and run by another company today and next door to Barry and Rudd Wine and Scotch...

    My First Pipe Cabinet

    I made this pipe cabinet, in my father's shop in 1972. I had graduated from college that year and during summer before I married I knocked this out with some 1/2" pine my dad had laying around. I couldn't afford the one Decatur sold, so using a catalog picture I put this one together. I was...

    DunHill Lighter Rebuild

    I have a Dunhill Rollagas gold lighter I purchased, at cost, when I worked at Diebel's in KCMO. Retail in 1974 was $160, and I paid $80. You know with the price of gold being what it is now you know what you have there, I'm sure. Mine is in my safety deposit box. I have never had to repair it...

    Well, it can be anyone you want it to be! ?. Actually, there is a quill pen carved on the side of his cap, a symbol of The Bard. But you know Lenin wrote too, albeit crap.

When I start talking to them its time for the funny farm. ? From L to R: 2 Arabs, a Native American, Shakespeare, a large Arab with meerschaum...
