The danish pipe-maker '''Poul Winslöw''' is 45 years old but has been in the business for 28 of them. So he was almost a boy, when he started. His first job was with the Danish pipemaker [[Preben Holm]], and I first have to say a few words about this important and, I think, well-known man. | The danish pipe-maker '''Poul Winslöw''' is 45 years old but has been in the business for 28 of them.

Old Winslöw-pipes are stamped with his name in big block-letter or in an oval. Now he has changed this and uses his symbol with a fancy pipe and the name WINSLÖW in small block-letters. There is also a difference on the stem between old and new pipes. Old pipes have one silver-dot on the stem (in some rare cases there may be 3 in the shape of a triangel) but on new pipes there are always 2 dots, one of them a little bigger than the other. | Old Winslöw-pipes are stamped with his name in big block-letter or in an oval.
