  • Very good vid, well done! After checking back though most all of the comments, no one has asked who the sound track is by. Will you share please? Thanks again.

  • @FlyntStormhammer Thanks. Well, the music info was there on the main page:

    Artist: Kevin Kendle "Sunlight - (Part 1)". ;)

    But in all honesty - I used an AudioSwap track and had no idea myself what it was. :) Thanks for watching and commenting.

  • Cool vid. It was interesting to see a lot of these folk smoking a pipe. Among others, I didn't know that Gregory Peck nor Leslie Howard smoked a pipe. Makes sense though. Classy gents. Oh, and I didn't know Ingmar Bergman smoked a pipe. Too cool.

  • @OTooleRules Thanks! I'm a bit embarresed to admit that I don't recognise half the people in this video. I just grabbed every photo I could find with a pipe featured.:)

    Cheers,

    - Mike

  • Fantastic collage of images. All but one were black and white? Was this on purpose? Were there no many color or more modern images? Not a criticism. It is a wonderful relaxing video. Thank you for the time and effort it took to put this together. Going to watch part 2 now.

  • @truckpipe Thank you sir! Well, it's been a while since I made these videos but from what I remember, I choose to use b/w images as they corresponded with the feeling I was trying to capture. The one color image that snuck in there was an oversight on my part. I'm sure there are loads of pipe related photos in colour in the LIFE Magazine collection... feel free to put together a video of those if you like.

    Cheers,

    -Mike

  • Call me an old-fashioned mysoginistic sexist, but I don't think a pipe and a woman mix very well.

  • Fantastic

  • Can we have a list of the people shown? Thanks!

  • Makes one wonder what's become of all those lovely old pipes!
