It had been previously report that Jørgen Larsen made Mr. Andersen pipes. However David Field, the importer for Larsen states, "Jorgen Larsen never made Mr. Andersen pipes to my knowledge." | It had been previously report that Jørgen Larsen made Mr. Andersen pipes.

As it turns out, there are two Jorgen Larsens making pipes! | |||
Søren Eric Andersen writes, "the brand MR: ANDERSEN was introduced by Remo Sørensen, a well known pipe dealer in Copenhagen. The pipes were made by several pipemakers, although I personally only knew one of them, Jørgen Larsen, formerly with Larsen & Stigart. It is unlucky that there are TWO Jørgen Larsens in this small trade, but the name is rather common in Denmark. I was not happy with [them using] that brand [name] for obvious reasons, but Andersen is quite a common name too. With my best regards, Søren Eric Andersen." | |||
It is wonderful to have this little mystery cleared up! Thank you, Søren --[[User:Sethile|sethile]] ([[User talk:Sethile|talk]]) 20:55, 19 February 2015 (UTC) | |||
