What is found on this board as well as the Dr Grabow site only scratches the surface of some of the collective knowledge. There has been talk of a book...
The question is, would you buy this gem of Americana?

Great Idea having a book written on Dr Grabow and his pipes. Difinitely would make reading easier and I'm sure we all would benefit from it

If it's a Dr. Grabow only book yes.
If it's a book about pipes in general, probably not
because most of the pipes they show in those books
I can't afford anyway!

| Maybe IP&A could do a bookish catalouge themselves the same way Petersons's did for collectors and the collectors yet to be. |

| Believe it or not, I've actually been thinking about trying to do some research and write such a book. It is pretty much a "pipe" dream, so to speak, but if anyone needs an editor, I'd be glad to volunteer my services. I don't do this for a living but I used to work as a technical writer. |

| As an academic, and a lover of books, and pipes, I would probably buy it. |

I'd love to get inside the factory.
Maybe I'll pose as the health inspector.
