Today I completed another ink drawing of a fellow tobacco pipe smoker on IG. He is Mike Lancaster who is the President & CEO of Tobaccopipecollectors.com (a.k.a. TPC). Mike is a cool cat on YouTube, Instagram, and he also is on Facebook. He really promotes indie pipe makers and is an very active in the pipe community. I purchased my 2nd indie pipe from him which was a JSG Stubby Poker with a Waist. The first was a Dagner Slayer Poker directly from Joe Case who happens to b a preferred vendor of TPC. Not only did I purchase my 2nd from Mike, but my 3rd & 4th as well (BriarBird Albatross Line Billiard & Monstrosity Line Zombie #86 from Olie Sylvester). I also purchased a TPC/GPC membership which also provides me with free shipping as well as a discount between 10-20%, depending on the vendor. Great savings from me for sure!! Although not a perfect portrait of Mike, there is a lot of resemblance and it didn't take long for folks on IG to identify the drawing :)
