It is the world's oldest and largest manufacturer of corncob pipes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe company was founded in 1869 when Dutch-American woodworker Henry Tibbe began producing corncob pipes and selling them in his shop. Tibbes likened the pipes to meerschaum pipes and thus named them \"Missouri Meerschaum.\" In 1878 Tibbe patented his method of fireproofing the pipes by applying a plaster-like substance to the outside of the cob. In 1883 Tibbe and his son Anton applied for a U.S. Patent to trademark their Missouri Meerschaum pipe. In 1907 H. Tibbe \u0026amp; Son Co. became the Missouri Meerschaum Company.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Missouri Meerschaum Company's factory currently produces 5,000 pipes per day.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Missouri","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56654693204346,"sku":"MIS-COB-ICON-BENT","price":7.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/0198\/6779\/files\/enprlr5y0af.png?v=1772799482","url":"https:\/\/www.smoke-king.co.uk\/products\/missouri-iconic-legend-corn-cob-pipe-bent","provider":"Smoke-King Tobacconist","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
