Unknown briar factory
6 July 2025
You wouldn't expect it, but as early as 1916, a briar pipe factory called Brigham was established in Toronto – and still operating today! The meticulous publication on this subject we recently received, was sent by the author, Charles Lemon. He used his father's pipes as study material, a collection he later expanded himself. This is how he ultimately compiled a complete history of a local pipe factory about which, until recently, nothing was known, including a nicely illustrated shape chart.
