Hi, I collect pipes, and have one marked "Coventry Tobacco Comp". Does anyone know about this company and when it existed (formation to closure).
Many thanks.

They're in the 1925 Telephone Directory:
Coventry Tobacco Co., Whlsle & Rtl, 22 Hertford Street,  Coventry 2126
Still there in the 1939 Directory
In 1945, 10 Park Road - still there in 1957
Not in 1959 Directory
