• In stock

Being a longtime fan of our Corn Cob Pipes, General MacArthur sent schematics to Missouri Meerschaum for a custom pipe. Of course we obliged! The MacArthur 5-Star Corn Cob Pipe features a shortened tobacco chamber allowed for an easy smoke, the extended bowl made the pipe easy for the General to use as a pointer, and the long shank provides a cool smoking experience. When we sent him his creation, he was delighted and would rarely be seen in a photograph without it.

Call it a quirk if you will, but the General would burn a ring around the shank on every new pipe he received. When President Truman relieved MacArthur at the end of World War II, hundreds of sympathizers besieged us with orders for the iconic 5-Star MacArthur Corn Cob Pipe, and MacArthur’s creation became a legacy. Today we still burn a ring around the shank in his honor.

What People Are Saying About Leaf Only

"I flashed up a cigar, hand made no less with Pennsylvanian filler, Aged Dominican Volado filler, Dominican binder and Ecuadorian Seco Shade wrapper! I rolled it a little loose so it is not the best draw, but, man what a flavourfull smoke. Once I get the rolling pressure down this will be my go to smoke. An absolute full to overflowing mouthfull of rich vanila-ish, bitter chocolate flavour. I am pleased beyond expectations. I will try another blend from my last order to tweak it some more, but, wow! what a pleasant surprise. Thank you again for being there with all your help ordering and supplying. I think the people at Leaf Only work very hard to please their customers. "
