Description from the seller
Zippo Gift Box set "Space Explorations" (A Remembrance, Vol. III) in limited edition, released in 1997. This thematic set pays tribute to the American space programs: Mercury, Gemini, Apollo and Space Shuttle.
• Edition number: 03 738 / 10 000 (indicated on the certificate).
• Completeness: 100% complete. Includes the presentation box in the form of a book, the historical booklet, and the original warranty certificate.
Condition:
• Exterior: Excellent aesthetic condition. The colorful decorations on the housings of the 4 lighters are very well preserved, shiny and intact. The box shows light storage marks as normal.
• Interior: For total transparency, the inserts have been meticulously checked. Two lighters (Apollo and Shuttle) are strictly NEW, never inked nor lit, with their original white wicks intact. The other two lighters (Mercury and Gemini) have been handled and tested; they show normal signs of use for their age, notably carbon residues (soot) on the wheels and natural brass oxidation/patina inside the chimneys (as shown in the close-up photos).
• Details: The inserts are original (code H XIII for 1997). No orange seals on the back of the lighters. A very beautiful authentic set, ideal for Zippo collectors or space-themed enthusiasts.
