Broken Pipe / President Ford

[Alpedhuez55]

President Gerald Ford smoked about 8 bowls a day in the Oval Office. He was also our nations longest living president.



May he rest in peace

There were some great photos I saw of him puffing away on the news yesterday. I wasn't alive for his Presidency, but can still recognize all the things he did for the country when it was needed most. To a great president and a great BOTL

First review above says the flavor was that of the 70s. Eight Bowls a day no wonder he was a good one did not have time for all small stuff....pluse what a way to make an important decision.....with your Pipe in Hand!!

What brand(s) pipes did he own and what shapes?

It looks like he is holding a Billard with a Saddle Bit in the picture.

I was in a shop yesterday and I picked up a pouch of his tobacco, John Middleton's Apple. It certainly smells nice in the pouch. But most $325 a pouch aromatics tend not to taste as good as the smell.

I will smoke a bowl in President Ford's honor today though
