In Search of Pipe Dreams by American keynote collector and pipe personality Rick Newcombe, has been one of the classics among worldwide hobbyists. Not only does this book share with us how Newcombe chased The Ideal Pipe by visiting and interacting with old world artisans around the globe over the past decades, especially with top Scandinavian masters such as Sixten Ivarsson, Bo Nordh, Jess Chonowitsch, Lars Ivarsson, Ulf Noltensmeier and Per Hansen (S.Bang), but also shows us how he had fun with our common hobby called Pipe Collecting.
