There is, I believe, a thread or two about this over in Shaving, so why not have a little fun? Post scenes from TV or movies, or from novels or short stories, which involve pipe smoking. Ideally they should be something specific, not just "a character carries or smokes a pipe."
For instance, in The Man From U.N.C.L.E.'s first season, specific pipe scenes appear in at least two episodes. In "The Never-Never Affair," we are told that Mr. Waverly's favorite tobacco is something called "Isle of Dogs No. 22," and in fact an "errand" to pick up his tobacco embroils Barbara Feldon's character in a spy plot. Earlier, in "The Mad, Mad Tea Party Affair," an U.N.C.L.E. lab technician is seen with a pipe in mouth and in hand in a crucial scene. When the villain kills him, we don't see his face or see him fall. Instead, we hear his body fall, and we see the pipe (a pot shape, I recall) clattering to the floor.
Sherlock Holmes: In "The Red-Headed League," I think, Holmes defines the puzzle as "quite a three-pipe problem, and I beg you won't disturb me for 50 minutes." He smokes 3 pipes' worth in less than an hour? Wow. I haven't read the story in a while; does Watson tell us what kind of pipe it is?
I can think of more, in fiction anyway, but let's see what you have.
