Vintage 1952 Zippo Half Cover Leather Oil Lighter Green Steel Rare Unfired Description Please read carefully before purchasing.Item Description
This vintage Zippo oil lighter is a 1952 half-cover leather model featuring green leather. It is a 5-barrel case variant with a steel inside unit, both marked with patent number 2032695. The exterior includes a corporate logo, characteristic of the half-cover leather series produced from 1952 to 1960.
Item Appeal
The steel-cased half-cover leather model is a significant collectible within the vintage Zippo range. As well-preserved leather models are becoming increasingly difficult to find, this piece represents a notable example of mid-century industrial design.
Condition
This lighter is designated as unfired. While it has never been used, it displays minor surface scuffs and paint loss resulting from long-term storage. The cam tension is functional, providing a crisp opening and closing action. The unit is capable of producing sparks; once oil and flint are added, it is ready for use. Please note that the originality of internal components, such as the hinge and hinge pin, cannot be verified and is considered unknown.
