Quote from a paper on BBB pipes by Jacques Cole:

“Probably one of the first filter pipes (paper filter) was the BBB "Sir Morell Mackenzie".

That this pipe was made before 1900 is shown by a letter dated August 27, 1891 from

Sir Morell Mackenzie regarding these models with longer mouthpieces.

The brand survived into the 1960s.”

Sir Morell Mackenzie (1837-1892) was a British physician, one of the pioneers of laryngology

in the United Kingdom. Nevertheless he failed to diagnose

the throat cancer of German Emperor Frederick III.
