Description

The listing, OLD ZIPPO LIGHTER - LOOKS BRAND NEW has ended.

From an estate...If this is NOT an antique please tell me and explain how you know. Because I am honest and do not want to have this advertised as an antique if it's not. I was told that it was, but I am not sure. That having been said I do know that it is old and in excellent condition. Your input and knowledge is welcome! I find this lighter fascinating! So any information I look forward to hearing!
Thank you!

it is old but not vary ..not old enough to be antique I would call it retro. With Zippos all you need to know is on the bottom ...most of the times any way lol..you see the two slanted dashes on both sides of the zippo name that is a date marker it changes with every production year I would say this one is 1978 ...yes 78

Okay Thank you so much! But isn't anything 25 years or older considered antique? 1978 - 2014 makes it 36 years old! Boy! I'M AN ANTIQUE!!!! Yikes! I'm older than the lighter!

Vintage would be a better term :)

I like that much better than antique! Yes Much Better! Thank you!

Jul 12th, 2014 at 9:09:07 PM PDT by

Yes indeed! Thank you for sharing!

Jul 13th, 2014 at 8:28:17 AM PDT by

Can you tell me how wide it is? Does it still work?

Jul 14th, 2014 at 5:48:19 PM PDT by

The measurements are in the comments. Someone else asked the same thing because I forgot to put them in the description. Thank you!

Jul 14th, 2014 at 9:31:52 PM PDT by

I really just want to know if it works. I bought one from 73 for my wife and the guts are broken. This is the same style

Jul 14th, 2014 at 5:51:06 PM PDT by

I don't see why it wouldn't work, everything is there except the gas. I got a lot of things from an estate and this was hidden inside one of the jewelry boxes. But to be perfectly honest I don't know because I don't have any gas for it. If you are afraid it might not work then please don't bid on it, because I can't promise it works no matter how much I feel it does. Thank you for watching!
