A Look Inside John Dengler, Tobacconist

I thought you all might enjoy this short video of my local B&M in St. Charles, Missouri, John Dengler, which is over 100 years old.

Recently bought a half pound of tobacco over the phone and they sent it out that day and just told me to mail a check. The proprietor, Larry, was a fantastic guy. What a cool shop.

Thanks for posting this very cool video!

I’ve been there several times over the years especially when the St Louis Gateway Pipe Show was held in St Charles!

The shop looks very cool. It's also very cool that the city of St. Charles made the video and is promoting the shop as a valued member of the community.

I’ve been pointing out the legacy of this great shop and the mythic legend that was John Dengler. I’m glad this video made it here. Now, go order some Black Maria.

By the way, this is the shop where I bought my first pipes and tobacco. In fact, I bought many a pipe there.

The last time I talked to Larry he said he was going to close up shop and possibly open a cigar lounge. It’s truly a shame.

Yup, fun times.

They were only a mile apart:
