Tom: If you are interested, I can e-mail you Ben Rapaport's Spring
2005 listing of available tobacco publications. He normally carries
about 30 publication on Clay Pipes but that is just a small selection
of the tobacco books he carries. If it is in or out of print and the
subject is tobacco related, Ben will have it if anybody does. I have
been buying tobacco books from him for a quarter of a century. His
Spring newsletter is 16 pages long on 8 1/2 by 14 paper.
