GB 0074 CLC/L/TE 1799-1846 Collection 3 production units Worshipful Company of Tobacco Pipe Makers and Tobacco Blenders

The company was granted a charter of incorporation by Charles II on 29 April 1663. It was recognised by the City of London, but without a grant of livery. The Company went into decline during the 19th century, both in membership and financial terms,and finally failed, probably in 1868. There had been an earlier Company of Tobacco Pipe Makers which was granted a charter by Charles I in 1634. Although it was of London and Westminster and England and Wales, meetings were held at Painter Stainers' Hall. However the charter was forfeited during the early 1640s. An earlier Company of Tobacco Pipe Makers of Westminster had been granted a charter in 1619, but had to surrender it fifteen years later. The present-day Company of Tobacco Pipe Makers and Tobacco Blenders is not the same Company, but is of recent origin (grant of arms 1956).

The provenance of the records is unknown, except Ms 01712 which was purchased from a bookseller in 1914. The records were deposited with the Manuscripts Section of Guildhall Library. The Manuscripts Section merged with London Metropolitan Archives in 2008. These records have been catalogued by various members of staff. No other records are known to survive.
