During the 50'ies several other pipe makers began to carve their own individual handmade pipes. In Suhr's Poul Rasmussen began to carve nice classical pipes. Gert Holbek who had been apprentice with Rasmussen became independent from 1955 and has since then carved pipes in his own very personal style. He is still making a few pipes. Arne Nygaard made pipes for Pibe-Dan and Brakner made pipes with a very characteristic rustication. In Jutland, Viggo Nielsen had been working with pipes since the war. The tobacconists W.Ø.Larsen and Pibe-Dan specialised in high -grade pipes and published their first catalogues in the end of the 50'ties. Both catalogues were in English. | During the 50'ies several other pipe makers began to carve their own individual handmade pipes. In Suhr's Poul Rasmussen began to carve nice classical pipes.
