[QUOTE="Justpipes, post: 31095, member: 38"] I have several Preben Holm Ben Wades and I have one Preben Holm mark. I have sold several as well. They are great smoking pipes! I had most of mine restored by Mike Brissett whose moniker on here is Pipemaker. Rad was right in saying the bloom is off the rose. They don't well quite as well as they did say 5-10 years ago but still a good acquisition if you can get a hold of them. The better ones that I have are the Matiniques, Golden Walnuts, Danish Hand Models and ones marked Preben Holm. I have a Preben Holm Crown that is in near unsmoked condition. Preben Holm was the precurser to today's Danish Carvers and I believe that he would be the man so to speak had he not met an untimely death at 42 years old in the 80's. Poul Winslow is one of Preben Holm's contemporaries and a lot of his work reflects it. If I am not mistaken Winslow has a line out now that is sort of a tribute to Holm's early work. [/QUOTE]
