So many famous pipe smokers in the world. Who are your favorites? My first is Lionel Barrymore, who was on TCM tonight in Captains Courageous!  |

William Conrad. This pipe is similar to mine.  Edward G. Robinson, of course. I wrote the dialogue for this poster.  And we can't leave out Der Bingle! Attachments:

Rep. Millicent Fenwick R-NJ. She smoked her pipe while sitting in Congress and everywhere else. A classy lady.  |

The late Glenn Ford, who was a major pipe smoker and collector. One of his several outsized and capacious pipe racks went on estate sale recently. A fine actor. You could say I grew up watching many of his movies in the 50s and 60s.  |

bonanzadriver I'm not sure I quoted your post correctly. If you do a youtube search of SRV smoking a pipe a video is there of him smoking while onstage.

Agreed, Mike! It wasn't until I saw Jeremy Brett as Holmes that I felt the stories truly come alive. Brett was a character actor and he researched every Doyle story to come up with a notebook on Holmes that gave him info in portraying him. He BECAME Holmes vs. simply portraying him. He is now the standard against which all others are compared, lol.
