First pipe was one my Grandfather gave me when I was 5 or 6 years old, a small bent stem pipe that I was fascinated with. Don’t remember what make it was or what ever happened to it. The first pipe I bought and smoked was a Dr. Grabow Viking bent stem, similar to the Falcon pipes, purchased in 1971 and I smoked it for years before passing it along to a friend in the early 90’s when I bought the Mastercraft in the attached picture , which I still have and smoke regularly.
