1932 - 3 Friars in a Nording. |

Preben Holm (1947 - 1989) has set some marks in pipe history. Just before his 16th birthday in 1963 he sold pipes to the legendary Pipe-Dan shop and at the age of only 22 he headed 45 employees. He was among the first Danish artisans who made "Danish pipe design" famous in the USA in the 1960's. More than that he was one of the very first carvers who exceeded this moderate Danish design which based on the classical shapes. "Chaising the grain" they turned out wild and dramatic fancy pipes. Combining smooth with blasted surfaces, showing big areas of the original bark at the top of the bowl and at the end of the stem, these pipes were quite shocking to many elder and more conservative pipesmokers.
When he started to sell his pipes to Lane Ltd. under the Ben Wade label, he caused a hype fairly beyond comparison. Especially in the U.S., as most of his pipes were sold there.
1983-84 Preben Holm wrote an autobiographic article which was published frequentely online and in print media (e.g. T.P.S.E. in 1994; see Book II page 670-673). This is a most interesting piece of history and, furthermore, one of the rare authentic documents.

Ron Believe it or not, that stuff never had anything going from day one. I thought the flavors might marry and turn into something good but it never happened. Honestly don't know what anyone gets out of that blend, not much of a tribute, IMO. 1934 - Escudo in a Tinsky. Perfect. |

Rom The 1792 still had a little kick and it needed lots of attention with re-lights but overall it was smooth. 5 years of age tamed it down a good bit, i'd say. |
