[[Image:lopez.jpg|thumb|left|50px|]]'''PIPES, Artisans and trademarks, by José Manuel Lopez'''
(not available on Amazon, check your favorite B&M or on-line tobacconist).
Language: English; Hardcover: 264 Pages, First English Edition 2005; Translation by Mick Greer; Forward by Ben Rapaport; Introductory Text by Gregory Pease. Originally titled "Cachimbos" and written in Portuguese, this book chronicles nearly every brand made as of 2005, with informative descriptions and excellent pictures. Currently considered the most complete book covering the numerous makers of tobacco pipes.
[[Image:companion.jpg|thumb|left|50px|]]'''The Pipe Companion: A Connoisseur's Guide, by David Wright'''
Available new and used on [http://www.amazon.com/Pipe-Companion-Connoisseurs-Guide/dp/0762403233/ref=sr_1_4/103-7439862-1951838?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1186064733&sr=1-4 Amazon]
Hardcover: 208 pages; Publisher: Running Press Book Publishers (October 2000); Language: English; ISBN-10: 0762403233; ISBN-13: 978-0762403233. Though far from exhaustive, this is a wonderful book with excellent pictures. The makers covered are covered more thoroughly than in José Manuel Lopez's book.
[[Image:dreams.jpg|thumb|left|50px|]]'''In Search of Pipe Dreams, by Rick Newcombe'''
Available new and used on [http://www.amazon.com/Search-Pipe-Dreams-Rick-Newcombe/dp/0966623916/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/103-7439862-1951838?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1186087729&sr=1-1 Amazon] or direct from the author [http://www.naspc.org/newcombe.pdf (brochure)]

[[Image:Rare_Smoke.jpg|thumb|left|50px|]]'''Rare Smoke: The Ultimate Guide to Pipe Collecting, by Richard Carleton Hacker'''
Available new and used on [http://www.amazon.com/Rare-Smoke-Ultimate-Guide-Collecting/dp/0931253101/ref=sr_1_2/103-7439862-1951838?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1186088075&sr=1-2 Amazon]
Hardcover: 265 pages, Publisher: Rick Hacker (December 1, 1999), Language: English, ISBN-10: 0931253101, ISBN-13: 978-0931253102. Very informative book on collecting, especially certain makes and eras. The pictures are informative (but not exciting). An enjoyable read, and well worth owning, although it has been said that Hacker has a somewhat pompous writing style and does some name dropping.

[[Image:TPSE.jpg|thumb|right|The Pipe Smokers Ephemeris, Last Issue]]'''The Pipe Smokers Ephemeris''' US ISSN 0032-0161: Edited and Published by late great [[Tom Dunn]] for 40 years (1964 - 2004). "The Ephemeris is a limited edition, irregular quarterly for pipe smokers and anyone else who is interested in its contents" and sent to "Coterians" around the World. Tom became a "broken pipe" in 2006, and although he was working on the publication of the next issue it was.
'''Editor's note''': I regret that I was not aware of Ephemeris, or The Universal Coterie of Pipe Smokers until recently. I just bought my first and only copy of the Ephemeris (the last issue, Winter - Spring, 2005) from [http://www.pipestyle.com/dunn1.htm Hermit Tobacco] at the MAPS show in Milwaukee. I hope to buy more editions on the used market as I can find and afford them. The last issue has 116 pages of excellent reading. I'm very envious of long time Coterians, especially those that new Tom personally, or enjoyed regular correspondence with him. I hope it will eventually be possible to obtain re-prints or electronic copies of the Ephemeris. If anyone knows of how this can be done legally and ethically, please edit this entry, or start a separate article by clicking [[The Pipe Smokers Ephemeris]].
