一把老坦泡烟斗
村里好像比较少人讨论坦泡啊，用的人应该也不少，最近收了一把二手坦泡，抽起来很好，个人觉得比土泡好用，清洗直接水洗也没问题，有了这把坦泡烟斗，把石楠都收起了两个。奇怪的是汤普森烟斗，在网上都很少有资料，有哪位老哥能科普科普坦泡的知识吗？ A USA Norm Tompson was started in Portland, Oregon. Here’s a brief history:The company was founded by namesake Norman Anchor Thompson, Sr. in 1949 as a way to sell his homemade flies for fly-fishing. An immigrant from Britain, he had settled in Salt Lake City before fighting for Canada in World War I. After the war he lived briefly in Los Angeles before settling in Portland where he owned seven pipe shops and later two nightclubs during World War II. Thompson retired after the war as owner of the nightclubs and tobacco shops.
He started the new business as a mail order only business by placing an advertisement in Field & Stream, and around 1951 handed it over to Peter Alport, his son-in-law. Alport was in advertising in New York City where he owned Parma Advertising. He worked to expand the company’s product offerings beyond fly-fishing items and into clothing and other outdoor merchandise, plus he developed the company’s slogan of Escape from the ordinary. During his tenure, Norm Thompson opened its first retail store in 1959, located in Northwest Portland. Namesake Norm Thompson died in 1968 from complications related to his exposure to mustard gas during his World War I military service in Europe.
Norm Thompson Outfitters is a privately owned catalog and internet retailer based in Middleton, Massachusetts that was previously based in Hillsboro, Oregon, United States until September 2016. The Norm Thompson offices were closed and consolidated due to Bluestem’s acquisition of their parent company, Orchard Brands, in July 2015. Founded in 1949 by Norman A. (Norm) Thompson as a mail order business, it grew to annual sales of $200 million before it was sold to Golden Gate Capital Partners in 2006. The company sells clothing, gadgets, furniture, kitchen items, and gift items from its namesake catalog as well as from its Solutions and Sahalie brands. John Difrancesco serves as president and chief executive of the 500 employee company.
