[QUOTE="smoker13, post: 453175, member: 3962"] I recently got a couple Ser Jacopo pipes from the 'picta' series, a Magritte and a really nice Van Gogh. I was going to break out the latter this morning and the thought struck me, now what would be the appropriate tobacco to smoke in this? So, what kind of tobacco would a poor painter from Holland travelling around the countryside there and also France in the latter 19th century smoke? I was wondering if his proximity to the sea would give him access to some kind of Navy Cut, or plug, or rope or what have you. Anybody have any insight into this? My interest goes beyond this particular fellow's situation in the 19th century, but that time period holds a fascination for me and thatgoes for a lot of different guys in a lot of different countries who reached for their pipes and filled them with.....? But for now, I'd like to stick with Vincent. True insights and guesses are all welcomed and appreciated. [/QUOTE]
