Chimney "Mark"

Post by maxmil »

This pipe dedicate it to Mark Trail, pipe smoker.
Mark Trail is a newspaper comic strip created by the American cartoonist Ed Dodd. Introduced April 15, 1946, the strip centers on environmental and ecological themes. In 2006, King Features syndicated the strip to nearly 175 newspapers.
When Mark Trail began, it was syndicated through the New York Post in 1946 to 45 newspapers.
Dodd, working as a national parks guide, had long been interested in environmental issues. The character is loosely based on the life and career of Charles N. Elliott (November 29, 1906 – May 1, 2000), at the time a U.S. forest ranger who edited Outdoor Life magazine from 1956 to 1974. Dodd once said that the physical model for Trail was John Wayt, his former neighbor in north Atlanta.In Spain was published in the late '40s, in a section of the comic "The Coyote" which was titled "says Mark Trail".
The mouthpiece is genuine cumberland.
Best regards.

Esta pipa se la dedico a Mark Trail, fumador de pipa.
Mark Trail es el personaje de una tira de comic creada por el dibujante estadounidense Ed Dodd. Fue introducido el 15 de abril 1946 y la tira trata sobre temas ambientales y ecológicos. En 2006, King Features syndicate, todavía, distribuía la tira a casi 175 periódicos.
Dodd, comenzó trabajando como guía en parques nacionales y llevaba mucho tiempo interesándose por el medio ambiente. El personaje es una versión libre de la vida y carrera de Charles N. Elliott (29 noviembre 1906 - mayo 2000), fue guarda forestal de Estados Unidos y editó la revista Outdoor Life desde 1956 hasta 1974. Dodd dijo una vez que el modelo físico que adopto para Mark Trail lo tomó de John Wayt, un antiguo vecino suyo del norte de Atlanta.
En España se publicó, a finales de los años 40, en una sección del tebeo “El Coyote”, que se titulaba "Mark Trail Dice:".
La boquilla es de cumberland genuino.
Saludos.
