AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Thank you for checking this out!
The aged silver-tone finish, engraved American eagle, and bold "THE AMERICAN EAGLE" lettering immediately caught my eye. This well-used finish has the kind of honest vintage character many collectors enjoy, and patriotic Zippo designs have always attracted attention. Please see the details below!
[Appearance]
This vintage Zippo features a silver-tone finish with "THE AMERICAN EAGLE" engraved on the lid and a detailed American eagle emblem with a laurel wreath on the front. The heavily aged finish gives the lighter a rugged vintage appearance.
The lighter shows noticeable scratches, scuffs, plating wear, tarnish, oxidation spots, and edge wear throughout. Despite the cosmetic wear, the engraved eagle and lettering remain clearly visible, preserving the lighter's distinctive appeal.
Please refer to the photos for detailed condition.

As this is a vintage item, an overhaul is recommended before long-term use.
Other functions have not been tested and are not guaranteed.

Please refill before use.
[Shipping]
The item will be carefully packed and shipped via FedEx or another reliable international courier with tracking.
