Ropp catalogue

[jaingorenard]

Another catalogue, although sadly this appears to only be 10 pages from a longer catalogue. It covers their 'Serie Anglaise' and 'the Yeco'. Hopefully this is of some interest. I would guess the approximate age is 1910-1930, but I haven't had time to look into it properly (from a cursory look the Yeco seems to have at least been about in the latter half of the 1920s). The catalogue will be uploaded to Pipedia soon.

That is awesome. Ropp has such a rich history that is all lost to time.

Agreed. For a brand that was so ubiquitous, including in the UK, there's surprisingly little information (or at least English-language).

I just picked my only Ropp off a rack and filled it with my latest home mix and then logged in to the forum to see this Ropp thread.

I have a few Ropps, both briars and cherrywoods. I've never smoked one of the cherrywoods, maybe I'll clean one up this weekend and give it a try!
