I am always on the hunt for historical documents on various pipe makers and brands. I have a good collection of them on the rebornpipes site currently that is easily accessed. This Leonard Payne Material came to me through Kenneth Lieblich. He purchased a boxed Leonard Payne Hand Made pipe that came with a box, the signature package of Amphora that Payne gave with his pipes and the brochure that I have scanned below. Give the document a read. It is fascinating to see what drove this pipe maker and the unique things he did in his craft. Thanks Kenneth.


My father owned this company for a few years and I worked at the plant at 515 Bay Avenue on Weekends and during the summer. I used to paste the stickers on the boxes. Great trip down memory lane!

That system looks remarkably like a Millard pipe system. Very interested reading. Thanks.

Thanks, Steve. I am working on more biographical and artisanal information on Payne. I hope to start posting some of it in the near future…
