 |
|
It was common in the heyday of pipes smoking to name a pipe after a Dr., hence the Dr. Grabow. Other Dr.s lending there name incuded:
Dr. Plum
Dr. B---- (can't remember)
Know of any others? Let's list them here...

Just did a quick search of eBay using "Dr." as search term. Mighty good search term for finding misspelled Dr. Grabow pipes. Here is a list of what I turned up.
Dr. Garbo
Dr. Graybow
Dr. Shotton
Dr. Crebow
Dr. Pat
Dr. Hardy
Dr. Bernard
Dr. Charles
Dr. Grabo
Dr. Perl/Vauln of Denmark
Will keep looking.

We do although know (I think) that Garbo, Graybow, Crebow, and Grabo are literally misnomers, leaving us with:
Dr. Plum
Dr. Pat
Dr. Hardy
Dr. Charles
Dr. Perl
Dr. Shotton
Dr. Bernard
Keep up the good work! |
