Description from the seller

Augusta Automatic Petrol Lighter – West Germany – Gold-Tone Lift-Arm Model with Lorenz Händler Inscription (München – Augsburg – Berlin) – With Original Box and Instruction Manual
Beautiful vintage Augusta Automatic petrol lighter in an elegant gold-tone finish, featuring the distinctive front retailer inscription “Lorenz Händler – München – Augsburg – Berlin” together with the LM crest. Marked “W. Germany”, this piece was produced in West Germany, most likely during the 1950s–1960s, representing refined post-war German lighter craftsmanship.
This model features the classic lift-arm automatic mechanism, highly appreciated by collectors for its reliability, smooth operation and characteristic vintage design. An especially desirable example as it still comes with its original presentation box and instruction manual, which are rarely preserved.
Condition • Original Augusta Automatic model
• Gold-tone body in good vintage condition
• Clear Lorenz Händler crest and lettering
• Fully functional petrol mechanism
• Includes original box and original instruction leaflet
A particularly attractive collectible lighter with brand history, retailer provenance, and complete original presentation — ideal for demanding collectors.
Will be carefully packaged and shipped with tracking.
