I've moved and with it I've changed my address: ben70gray@gmail.com. I am still in the book business, but my special niche in this hobby is fading fast!

A smoking pipe is nothing a long pipe, make to smoke tobacco. Tobacco smoking through pipes has a great tradition and it has been a royal hobby in history. These pipes are still in fashion and customers who are quite passionate about the art of smoking, are able to bring in certain elegance to their personality.
