I bought a Preben Holms in Mid 60s

Preben Holm info Needed??
This was another line that Holm carved, outside the Ben Wade contract pipes he was producing for Snug Harbor/Lane. I think they were mostly carved in the mid to late 70's or early 80's. They are one of a number of projects Holm carved, such as the Monte Verdi series, the Rungsted Mariner series... -
Monte Verde pipes
The Monte Verdi line was indeed a pipe style offered by Holm. It usually features heavily blasted and rusticated briar and smaller group sizes than some of his other lines.

Taking a Rest
I have found this to be true, also. A simple 24 hour break is the best way for me to try a new blend. I don't really want to be smoking, just to be smoking. Giving the palate a rest is a good idea. :puffpipe:- mlaug

This Pipe Is More Unusual Than Most
zanthal noticed the same thing I did about this pipe. Its been smoked! From the looks of it, there is a cake in the bowls. Anyone that has watched their own pipe slowly build a cake knows how long that takes, so this pipe must have been a regular smoke for someone. Novelty pipes are usually... -
