decided to add a little more pictures of lighters on ibee met, in particular I liked here this Zippo resembling gold bullion further association with the envelope shown here due to postal Marochko and everyone's favorite replica '35 with external loop and applied Zippo side lettering and an image of a pirate flag (I associate it with the pirates, can somebody with something else, such as a sign sometimes still associated with the flask of poison) |

colleagues, with your permission, if you do not mind, to continue the story of the interesting Zippo, met in stores on the Web :) maybe it just proves how limitless world Zippo ... ordinary silver Zippo, one of which is a map of Japan, and the other Japanese prints   |

two Zippy, golden color and serebyanogo depicting various logos Zippo, if you can call them ... or even emblems ... as well as another Zippo with engraving, but only color, something like art Zippo art ..   it is not clear just why the inscription at the bottom of Zippo made "upside down"  |

guys, well, it is not me, I am well aware that many may not like Zippo seen, but this is a subjective opinion, not me who did this Zippo :) if it was my doing-your advice I would have left out! :) and the similarity, the similarity is not, well, what to do, what is ... |

Well I would not call it a fake :) It's not written ZIPPO :) This is a very common Sterling eastern production (and in Japan are made, and in Peru, and Mexico), quite common lighters. All of them were fitted just under zippovsky insert. But themselves under Zippy never mowed :) | |

Yes, Volodya, you are absolutely right :) During and following the post-WWII Allied occupation, the Zippo became very popular in Japan. The sterling 950 silver lighters from the late 1940's and 1950's were crafted in Japan for the Zippo insert. During the Second World War and post-war years during okuppatsii Allied troops, Zippo has gained much popularity in Yaponii.Serebryanye lighters 950 at the end of 40s and 50s were manufactured in Japan under zippovsky insert (hopefully in translation errors no special) |
