Missouri Merskum Corncob Original 6 mm

Product description:

The original from Missouri / USA.
The corncob pipes are made from a special type of corn grown specifically for their production. This corn is larger and has a harder kernel than the usual corn.
The Missouri Merskum Company is the oldest and largest manufacturer of corncob pipes. In 1878, the company’s founder, Henry Tibbe, patented his method of making the pipe fireproof by using a special paste.
This probably explains the origin of the name “Missouri Merskum”. “Missouri Merskum” is a trademark and a well-known name for the corncob pipes of the Missouri MerskumCompany in Washington, Missouri.
Farmers and farm workers love these pipes.
