Re: the 'Anchor' Pipe
"The anxiety of the trade to put upon the market a pipe similar to the “Anchor” briar was shown recently by a Continental house who actually infringed the trade-mark in a most audacious manner. Owing to the loyalty of the firm’s customers, this was soon discovered, and the culprits made to pay dearly for their venture. Messrs. Nathan & Co. produce these pipes in an almost interminable variety of designs, and in their well-printed and illustrated catalogue upwards of two hundred varieties are represented. Among these one of the latest novelties is the “Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race Pipe.”. This pipe was chosen by Lord Ampthill and the members of the Oxford University Boat Club, and was described by them as “one that leaves nothing to be desired, either in quality, shape, or convenience, for boating men.” The firm also supply elegant show-cases and window-blocks, and, as an example of the enterprise of the firm, it may be stated that they supply these free to each customer who may give a moderately large order, as an inducement to them to give the public an opportunity of judging the “Anchor” briars on their merits. On the first transaction of this description the firm stand to lose not less than £5; but they are speedily recouped by the rapid extension of business which follows an effective display of their goods. The above is a representation (one-tenth actual size) of one of Messrs. Nathan & Co.’s show-cases, made of solid mahogany lined with superior velvet, and blocked with best English gold leaf, with nameboard on top, and plate-glass air-tight doors, made by one of the best London makers ...
... Another distinct advantage gained by retailers who deal with Messrs. Nathan & Co. is that each has a monopoly of the sale of “Anchor” briars in his own neighbourhood or town, thus preventing unnecessary “cutting.” Messrs. Nathan & Co. are well known throughout the trade as straightforward and honourable business men, with whom it is alike pleasurable and profitable to be brought in contact. We may add that the “Anchor” pipe is registered universally, and it is said of it that where the English drum is heard to beat there will these pipes be found."

Eastfarthing in a Grabow. First time smoking the blend. Undecided on whether it’s for me. It has a strange aroma and taste that I can’t put my finger on. Vanilla, rubber and soap?
Finishing off a busy work day (with only about three hours of video conferences) with a Pete House Pope — wow that would be fun and very holy — Pipe filled with something I found at the bottom of what amounts to my cellar: Kramer’s New Mix. Gone a bit dry but so far a nice relaxing tobacco for a cloudy cool LA evening.
