Need to bump this video againKevin Keith wrote: ↑Sat Sep 12, 2020 8:43 am I've posted this before but it's buried deep and not really accessible, so I want to repost it here. You can see the last pre-smoking machine used at Sparta (a carousel kind of contraption) in action starting at about the 3:45 mark. The working factory shop shots are the Grabow craftsmen making Dr. Grabow pipes. The outdoor picnic is a Grabow employee shindig. You can spot various Grabow pipes being smoked including a CDL. At 4:54 you can hear the Dr. Grabow song. It's a cool piece of American pipe smoking history.
