The Old Zippo

Btw; I have seen the Zippo car up close and personal at a Case knife show. Those two companies are related. They even own the old Ronson brand too.

With an illustrious celluloid legacy, Zippo lighters have appeared in the likes of Casablanca (1942), The Godfather (1972) and Die Hard (1988) featuring the windproof lighter, with Bobbitt himself featuring the lighters in cult classic Hocus Pocus (1993) and action flick Charlie Angels (2000) among others.

You almost never see a movie’s “bad guy” using a Zippo. What is it about the Zippo lighter that suggests heroism?

Your well put together, professional level videos never fail to entertain. Need a leather belt pouch, and gasket. Have the fuel bottle. Now you got me craving a smoke and I don't even smoke regularly. A "Lucky" is one I've never tried. Back in the old days my Dad smoked the original Camels if he wasn't rolling his own with Velvet and OCB non gummed black book papers. He, like most others got on the filter cigarette trend in the early 70s and transitioned through Vantage, Doral, Carlton, maybe a few generics. He was smoking Winston when he passed away over 20 years ago. He was never in the military, but he was WWII generation. Failed his physical, so was busy milking Holsteins during the war. Now I need a fresh pouch of makins.. You should be in the "bad influence" advertising business.. 🤔🙄😀 Can't wait till you spin up another video.
