Zippo Champions windproof lighter with a brushed steel finish, made in the United States in June 1997 (code F XIII), included in its original presentation box and in working order.
Description from the seller
Zippo Champions – windproof lighter in presentation box – produced June 1997 – F XIII
Original Zippo windproof lighter with brushed metal finish and featuring the characteristic “Champions” logo. Supplied in the original presentation box, which makes this specimen particularly attractive for collectors of vintage advertising and promotional lighters.
This Zippo is manufactured in the United States and built to the classic windproof design for which the brand is worldwide known. The lighter runs on lighter fluid and features the iconic hinged lid and interchangeable inner workings.
At the bottom marked with date code F XIII, corresponding to production in June 1997. Promotional Zippos with Champion-related branding were especially popular in the 1970s and 1990s, a period in which American automotive and motorsport brands produced many exclusive collectibles for garages, dealers and events. Especially specimens with original boxes are loved among collectors of automobilia and vintage advertising. A nice piece of “garage gold” from a time when even a spark plug conveyed more swagger than today’s average sports car lease.
