    Great site, exactly what I was looking for actually, almost. Maybe you can help me? You have a ton of great paintings of pipes and smokers here, which is what I am looking for. The other day at an antique store I saw a print of a painting of; a teenage youth apprentice of some kind smoking his master’s pipe, and his master is opening the door behind him, catching him in the act. Like it’s the kids first pipe smoke experience or something. I cant find the artist or name of this painting anywhere. Maybe you or one of your readers knows about it? thanks….

    Great to hear that Ed.
    I can’t remember seeing such picture/painting in my mind.
    But if I’ll find something you can be sure I let you know and place a post here.

    Thank you for your visit,
    Marcin

    Great collection of pipe-smoking Americana, Marcin. I grew up with Norman Rockwell’s pictures and enjoy seeing them again.

    (But we miss you over at Smoker’s Forums! Come on back when you can!)
