March Meer Madness - 2015

[NeverBend]

Hi Mister Moo,

Kaywoodie did make meerschaums (or they were made for them) and they were well considered in the 1950s. I don't know the heritage and history of the White Briar but they were a pretty good seller back in the day.

I haven't smoked a meer in about 35 years but last fall I purchased a cased Inderwick meerschaum prince on eBay that I will indulge in after I get it cleaned. Lack of pics and cleaning was a personal matter but Inderwick was an English store up to the 1960s and it's probable that it was made in Austria. It's a group 3 size and despite my tardiness I'm looking forward to firing it up because like you, I've become a better smoker in the last 35 years and I might better appreciate the meer now. Pics will follow.

I have long envied the Kaywoodie calabash meer/gourd pipes but never found one I could afford. Lovely pipes, those, too.
