Description
This beauty from the 1950s was never used. It’s just like the day it was made with the addition of some nice soft even patina on the metals. Original wick never lit. Original flint creates robust spark.
No dents. No scratches. The copper and brass have no corrosion. It is perfect. On the base is an outline of a label which looks like the ‘Copper Craft’ label shape. Copper Craft, a USA company, was widely popular in the 1950s. Has tripod feet, an Eames Era fashion.
Marked on the base of the lighter mechanism ” Evans USA” with two lions propping up a shield. Evans was a lighter manufacturer.
Measures just under 3″ tall and 2½” at widest.
