We are starting a new weekly series! Welcome to Briar Report Weekly, in which we feature stories from the previous week of the Briar Report and Briar Report online magazine, as well as stories that didn't make it to either website. Any story not featured on either Briar Report site we graciously provided to Maple City Pipecast by Briar Report editor Phil. 

This week we look at the happenings surrounding Missouri Meerschaums 150th anniversary, the seasonal release of the Flying Pig Cigar line from Drew Estates and the passing of actress Bibi Anderson. All related links are below. Hope you enjoy the new series!
