corn cob pipe

Hillbilly smoking implement

A corn cob pipe is a tobacco pipe with its bowl carved from a dried corn cob—the woody core left after kernels are removed.

Inexpensive and lightweight, these pipes are associated with rural American life and folksy characters.

General Douglas MacArthur famously smoked one, as does the cartoon mascot Frosty the Snowman.
