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.

Dr.Grabow...是個美國知名的煙斗大廠，

產品型號也超豐富，尤其此斗(加拿大斗型)產量不多。

因為加拿大斗型製作非常耗費材料，

所以早期斗廠就算願意生產...產量也是非常有限 !

D.G 廠該斗型在老骨董市場算是稀客，

老娘當初進口老古董斗抵台時見到...

立馬就列入私藏，成為老娘的日常用斗。

咱們都知道加拿大斗型的超長煙道頭段.....

能有效降低入口菸氣熱度，

使菸氣乾爽清涼功效相當顯著 !

這是加拿大斗型吸引人的超級強項 !

再看看此斗的早期木料更是流口水，

早年石楠木還沒那麼多斗廠使用時，

平均各斗廠都會使用30年樹齡以上的老石楠木製斗。

這也是近年歐美流行早期老古董斗收藏風的主因 !

老石楠木料質地會較緊密，耐熱度和吸水性都較好。

這點不用吹噓誇大，早就被斗廠和老斗友肯定了 !

來談談此斗的缺點吧 !

唯一缺點就是煙道和斗嘴接合處有道天然砂孔裂紋，

原廠有填補。

但是回台灣海關檢查核算稅費完後...隨意塞回箱子，

壓到後...造成填補鬆動剝落(海關永遠不會承認滴)。

美國出口時沒有檢查，只有台灣檢查(哎~~~一言難盡)。

做貿易的只要談到各國海關，國罵省罵保證滿嘴飛 !

所以老娘重新填補了該道"線狀砂孔裂紋"，

但是留下給自己享受了 !

列入此波釋出名單後老娘重翻新了此斗，

原先修補處還非常堅固，沒有任何問題 !

並且以超低優惠價格.....讓給新斗主，

並且提供不限期的售後服務 !

【二千五百元整】超親民的價格，絕對超值 !

PS.此斗已於2022.09.09售出!!!
