Leisure object - Tobacco Pipe Cleaner, W.D. & H.O. Wills, After 1897
Tobacco smoking became a popular leisure activity in the 19th century. The corkscrew and the tapper accessories are used to clean the pipe and remove the debris after the tobacco is smoked in the pipe. The tamper is marked Capstan, which is a brand of pipe tobacco. The brand was first used in 1894 when W.D. & H.O. Wills launched their new product. The pipe tobacco accessories are associated with tobacco pipes and with Capstan tobacco, which became available in the 1890s. Smoking has been a popular leisure activity since the 19th century and continues now. The manufacturer of Capstan, W.D. & H.O. Wills, was the first company to mass-produce cigarettes.Pipe cleaners; a pair of metal accessories tools for cleaning tobacco pipes. One is a corkscrew, and the other is a tapper, shaped like a tapered nail. The tapper has an inscription. The brand is Capstan."Smoke" "Capstan"warrnambool, shipwreck coast, flagstaff hill, flagstaff hill maritime museum, flagstaff hill maritime village, capstan, tobacco pipe tools, tobacco accessories, pipe corkscrew, pipe tamper, tobacco tapper, tobacco smoking -
