MacArthur 5-Star Natural Corn Cob Pipe

$19.99

• 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

"First of all let me say thank you for providing a great service! All my orders have been packed well and shipped in a timely manner. I bought the starter kit w/ DVD which was very helpful, than upgraded to buying some more lbs of PA cigar tobacco for rolling fun. As part of a cigar club i belong too, I had the opportunity to present my hand rolled cigars and give a demonstration to the club members. It was a resounding success and I've recommended to them all - buy the starter kit! It's loads of fun. I got very positive results when I gave out the cigars and gave a presentation on it. People come back asking to take seconds! I'm all out of cigars - better get back to rolling! "
