Here is info about Everflow Lighters I have written for the Lighter Library: Everflow table lighters are a variation of the Quercia Eclair produced after World War 2 during the late '40s. Though based on Marcel Quercia's 1930 semi-automatic mechanism design, the Everflow uses a distinctive coil-type...

Here is some info I have put together about Chesterfield & Ritz Lighters for the Lighter Library. Both lighters are largely undocumented and I haven't been able to identify their manufacturer with certainty. Does any has more info?

Here are some photos comparing the IMCO Tornado & Golden Wheel Streamliter. The IMCO is brass & chrome, the Golden Wheel is sterling. My impression is that IMCO produced the design first but have not been able to date the Golden Wheel version yet. More Tornado picturers here: http://lighterl...

I started looking through patents for this lighter last night but no luck yet. Can anyone help ID this lighter? The logo on the fuel screw head looks familiar, I think it may have been shown here before.... ******************* Ich habe letzte Nacht angefangen, Patente nach diesem Feuerzeug zu durchs...

Here two other variations, both are marked "Eclat G23".

Hier sind zwei weitere Varianten mit "Eclat G23" gekennzeichnet.

Now that 2 years have passed, I can show a version of the Tout Vente. My example is a little different than what is pictured in Olivier's ad, so we know at least two versions were produced. *********************** Nachdem 2 Jahre vergangen sind, kann ich eine Version des Tout Vente zeigen. Mein Beis...

I finally discovered the maker of the MK copy after 5 years, was produced in France by Monneret.

Designed in 1927 by Leo Potter, the Potter Matchless was manufactured in New York City. Credited as a prominent industrialist and financier, this is Potter's only known lighter design—though he has an unusual assortment of other patents to his credit including handbags, an industrial clothes iron, a...

Here is some basic info about Abraham Pollak and a link to more details and photos: Abraham Pollak was a little-known New York inventor and designer. The earliest Pollak patent was applied for in 1921, a utility patent for a mechanical lead pencil design. Pollak subsequently patented almost a dozen ...

Based on pictures others have shared, I think all four of these lighters were produced by Drollinger?

Here is an IMCO lighter that is new to me. The Triplex mechanism is marked "Made in Germany" so I think it was produced during the WW2 era. The base metal of the lighthouse has a silver-like patina but is not marked. I especially like the single red window that identifies the position of t...

Here is an unbranded pocket lighter I recently found on eBay UK. I have never seen this lighter before. Does anyone know something about it? *********************** Hier ist ein Taschenfeuerzeug ohne Marke, das ich kürzlich bei eBay UK gefunden habe. Ich habe dieses Feuerzeug noch nie gesehen.

I thought I had shown the Shawlite before but could not find a previous topic so maybe both of these lighters are new to the forum. The Perkins "Shawlite" is a manual lighter very similar to the McMurdo, the "Wonderlite" is a push-buttom semi-automatic similar to the BeBe & B...

This Quercia desk set includes a Champion lighter with attached letter opener and a dual-function cigarette box with built-in blotter. I didn't realize the presentation box was so large until the set arrived; the Flambeau is shown for scale. ************************************ Dieses Quercia-Schrei...

I did not find another post for these lighters, so I'll show this new set here.

Ich habe keinen weiteren Beitrag für diese Feuerzeuge gefunden, daher werde ich dieses neue Set hier zeigen.

Here is a small version I found recently in France, I am curious what type of snuffer it used.

The above link to Rex in the Lighter Libray is broken. Sorry, I must have changed something without realizing it. Here is a new link to his manufacturer: http://lighterlibrary.com/rexmanufacturing.php

From today's mail.

Here are 3 little pigs: an RK in front, a Robur in the back, and an unbranded match safe in the middle.

Nice Roland, I really like the crackle finish. They are the prettiest finishes Guinn offered I think.

When I searched the forum today, I was surprised to discover I had not posted any Guinn lighters before. Apologies! As a U.S. collector, I have grown-up in an environment where many collectors believe the world on lighters revolved around Ronson and Zippo. This is one reason I was so exited to disco...
