AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The worn silver-tone finish, diagonal corner lines, and old-style Zippo engraving caught my eye. The heavy wear feels honest, like a lighter that actually lived in a pocket—exactly the kind of character auction buyers notice.
[Appearance]
This Zippo has a well-used silver-tone finish with visible scratches, surface wear, dark oxidation, and noticeable pitting across the case. The edges and corners also show wear from age and handling.
The front features a large decorative Zippo logo with “MADE IN U.S.A.” beneath it, plus diagonal line details at the upper-right and lower-left corners. The bottom is stamped “Zippo” and “BRADFORD, PA.”, although some details are difficult to read due to wear and corrosion.
It is certainly not a clean example, but that rough, aged surface gives it a strong vintage character that collectors often enjoy.
Please refer to the photos for detailed condition.
[Functionality]
Basic ignition only confirmed.
As this is a vintage item, an overhaul or professional maintenance is recommended for reliable long-term use.
Other functions and internal components have not been fully checked and are not covered by any guarantee.
[Accessories]
Everything shown in the photos is included.
Flint and gas will be removed before shipping.
Please refill before use.
[Shipping]
The item will be securely packed and shipped internationally by FedEx or another reliable international courier.
Import duties, taxes, and customs charges vary depending on the destination country and are the buyer’s responsibility.
