Letters from readers
Dr. William Ziegler
I appreciated the article and paintings by Tim Crowder, especially his interest in and painting of C.G. Jung. It especially caught my eye since I have been a student and teacher of Jung’s psychology for 30 years. During the summer of 2001 I took a sabbatical to study at the C.G. Jung Institute in Kusnacht (a suburb of Zurich), Switzerland. Carl Jung lived in Kusnacht for m
ost of his adult life and along with his house, church, and grave, you can also find the tobacco shop he patronized. Tabatiere Kusnacht was a place I visited often after class to purchase a Cuban cigar, as well as Granger Pipe Tobacco, which the owner told me was Jung’s “tobacco of choice.” Jung loved his pipes, and although I did not have an opportunity to examine any, pictures show him with what appears to be a Falcon pipe, and an abundance of classic English briars. Given his trips to London, I would not be surprised if his collection contained a number of Dunhill, Barling, Comoy and other English pipes.
