Dr. Grabow pipes began with Louis B. Linkman († 1957), of the M. Linkman and Co.

of Chicago in 1932 (Pat # 1 896 800). Linkman and Co.

ceased producing the Dr. Grabow pipes around 1953.

After this date the brand was owned by Henry Leonard and Thomas (HLT), Inc. of Queens,

New York and produced by Sparta Pipes Inc.
In 1969, US Tobacco acquired Sparta Pipes and rights to Dr. Grabow.
Lane Ltd. acquired the Dr. Grabow property from US Tobacco. Lane Ltd.

came under ownership of RJ Reynolds and British American Tobacco in about 2000.
Dr. Paul E. Grabow died in 1965 at age 97.
Production (2006): ~250,000 pipes/year

The earliest Dr. Grabow pipes are stamped with both Linkman's and

Dr. Grabow, described as Bruyere, or Italian Briar.

Pre-1944 model names included the SPECIAL, the DELUXE (this pipe), and the SUPREME.

The Linkman's stamp was discontinued around 1944.

Linkman's Dr. Grabow pipes are also stamped with a 4-digit code indicating the model and shape.

One of the earliest pipes of the RJ Reynolds era.

金屬半圓式榫頭可自行DIY調整斗嘴鬆動問題，無須一鬆動就動輒送修。

當斗嘴鬆動時用尖嘴鉗戳入濾心處...稍稍將兩半圓榫頭撐開即可緊密。

撐開榫頭只需輕輕撐開...勿用力過猛，是項非常聰明貼心的早期設計。

【一千五百元整】翻新的非常漂亮做膜後鏡面效果非常美，值得擁有!!!
