Dear colleagues!

Skim through the forum did not find information on the orange stickers on the new lighters Zippo.

The fact that the lighters have encountered labels that differ not only drawing "naughty child", but also the material of manufacture. Furthermore, commercially caught lighters that are generally without labels.   

For example, in the year before me from the country of origin was brought lighter Zippo, which had a sticker on glossy (such as paper, top-coated film-like adhesive tape) [1] . But previously purchased lighters have stickers, but paper. Also as mentioned above, met with different patterns warning "mischief children."

Recent acquisitions here: http://shop-zippo.ru/ were delivered without any labels. Thus the representative seller is nothing intelligent about the lack of labels could not explain.   

In this regard, a number of interrelated problems:

- Is it possible to consider the presence of an orange sticker on either one of the criteria of authenticity Zippo?     

- What stickers official manufacturer of labels (marked) their lighters?

- Is there a list of descriptions (by year, country, events, facts, or other binding) stickers and pictures on them, the same informative lists stigma bottoms and inserts?

Thank you.

Not always. The fact that the orange sticker glued only to cigarette lighters held for sale in the United States. At any export party they are glued.

- What stickers official manufacturer of labels (marked) their lighters?

You saw that in the years - different. I'm not sure that there is some kind of standard for these stickers, so quite possible that at one time they are glossy, just in a different paper, and so on ... Maybe, just just before they were paper, and then began krasivenko glossy everything is possible ... :)))

- Is there a list of descriptions (by year, country, events, facts, or other binding) stickers and pictures on them, the same informative lists stigma bottoms and inserts?

I am afraid that no such list is not done - it's too distracting details yet :) Anyway, I was on such a list is not known.
