Description from the seller

Wonderful brass commemorative lighter for the "Spirit of St. Louis", the famous single-engine airplane piloted by Charles Lindbergh on the first nonstop transatlantic flight, in 1927.
The body of the lighter features an engraving with the silhouette of the plane and the inscriptions "New York - Paris" and "Spirit of St. Louis". The mechanical design on the top is based on classic lift-arm lighters popular in the Art Deco era of the 1920s and 1930s.

Dimensions:
6.6 x 3.5 x 1.5 cm
