Sir Walter Raleigh




Even though the above is a modern can (the earlier style ones were even more attractive), the above image shows Sir Walter Raleigh Pipe Tobacco... the pipe tobacco that my father smoked probably 95% of the time..... and it was the brand of pipe tobacco I first "borrowed" a bit of to learn the beauty of pipe smoking.  

It is truly beautiful in all regards.  

I miss it.  But, hell, I miss Prince Albert as well, and I miss the more exotic "fancy" varieties I have indulged in from various nicer pipe shops as well.

    My favorites were Prince Albert, Half and Half, and sometimes Brush Creek.

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
