Several different makers apparently used the '''Fireside''' name. | |||
''The Smoker's Ephermeris'', Summer 83 - Spring 84 issue, page 43 makes mention of a pipe maker named William Craig at Hurffville's (NJ) '''Fireside Pipe Shop'''. | |||
'''Fireside''' has three entries in ''Who Made That Pipe'' (1997, by Herb Wilczak & Tom Colwell) as follows: | |||
*2714, Fireside: [[Comoy's]], [[Ben Wade]], and John Pollock ([[Pollock Clay Pipes]]). Country listed as England | |||
*2714, Fireside: Westminster NYC (USA), and [[Hardcastle]] Pipes (Enlgland) | |||
*2715, Fireside Churchwarden: John Pollock and Co. ([[Pollock Clay Pipes]]), and [[Comoy's]]. Country listed as England | |||
The example bellow is marked '''Fireside Made in Denmark'''. Perhaps the Fireside Pipe shop, or one of the other briar pipe makers listed above, also imported pipes from a maker in Denmark. Or this may have been made by [[Ben Wade]] when they were being made in Denmark, but this would be very different from the typical "Freehands" they were associated with during that era. | |||
