[QUOTE="standardtoaster, post: 169604, member: 2012"] I think the calabash origin was a result of early actors portraying Holmes. I read somewhere that they chose a calabash because it was easier to hold in the mouth and talk without having to use your hands to hold it. And then it just stuck I guess. It was probably more appealing as a stylized set piece as opposed to a simple clay pipe as well. [/QUOTE]
