[QUOTE="monbla256, post: 432576, member: 2244"] When I started smoking a pipe in 'Nam and got home, my father-in-law, who was a confirmed Edward's smoker took me to the old Edward's in N. Dallas one Saturday morning. As I recall, they opened around 9:00 am and we got there around 9;45 so as to get a stool to sit on. They had a semi-circular counter with around 12 stools at it and on Sat. mornings ALL stools would fill up by 10 am and more folks would come in to stand at the "bar" smoking and drinking the coffee they furnished and usually stay till around lunch. He would do this almost every Sat morning and I would often join him. 'Course, back then Edward's ONLY sold their tobaccos and pipes and most of the conversations were concerning Edward's blends and pipes. I did smoke one of their blends, Special Balkan, as most folks did not like my 759 that I would bring in in my roll-up :twisted: :twisted: BTW, they DID NOT sell cigars or cigs back then !! Those were the days !! :twisted: [/QUOTE]
