Austrian lighter Hurricane - a prototype Zippo, $ 199.99

A rare and precious thing - the Austrian lighter Hurricane, which presumably inspired by George Blaisdell for the invention in 1932, Zippo. Doubly rare that this specimen covered with black leather - before I met only pure copper. A very good acquisition for historical rather modest price!
Sale price: $ 199.99

    In those days it was chic.
