I never met Donald Healey, but I'm pretty sure in a magazine   
advertisement for Scotch Whiskey in the mid to late 1950's he was  
smoking/ holding a cigarette. Maybe someone else can confirm?
And yes, most of us who met Geoff remember him smoking a pipe.
Margot Healey actually gave me one of Geoff's pipes a few years after  
Geoff died.
Geoff was a great guy. And it was a very personal item to remember him  
by. It even has a finger print smudged in Austin Healey engine enamel  
on it.
I was really touched.
Best.
