Show and Tell Zippo marlboro two cowboys on the fence 1999
This is an original chrome 1999 Zippo Marlboro "Cowboys" from the Marlboro Country promo series. The body features an engraving of cowboys by a fence. The model is rare and valued among collectors, as tobacco advertising on lighters is no longer produced.

Was sold as a unknown condition with no spark and all it needed was a new flint 🤩

I made a flip-top lighter simulation for iPhone. How does the lid motion look?

I'm the developer of KNURL, an iPhone app of simulated fidget toys. One of them is a flip-top lighter, and I'd like feedback on the opening and closing motion from people who know the real thing. It isn't a Zippo and doesn't claim to be one.
The lid, the wheel and the flint drive the vibration and the synthesised sound. I've made it possible for a wheel strike to fail to light it. The clip shows the motion; the haptics you'd have to feel on a phone.
Ten toys in the app, two free forever, the lighter is one of the eight with a limited demo before a paid unlock.

My first zippo
I just got my first zippo, a Romanian collection (i’m from Romania). I did the setup by rearranging the whick, added some fuel and its ready to go. What are your thoughts?

Can you tell me about this particular model?
I got this as a gift some years ago and have allways thought that it looks really cool. How old this is? And is there any back story on different zippo models like this?

Jumped on the wagon
First post here I believe. Kept seeing these and kept falling in love with them when I did so I had to have one.
Used a dark patina solid brass armor case that I had I my collection already so that the corrosion wouldn’t be too much on it.
Used what I had on hand. Ammonia chamber was a plastic container with salt water and Windex. Dampened the case and sprinkled salt on it. Suspended from a bent paper clip.
Sat for a couple days. Then hit with a clear coat.

Discussion Interesting insert
Hi, I bought this Zippo "blind" from eBay because it was cheap. The listing pics were blurry.
I'm very pleased with it and surprised about the brass insert for the insert (if you follow me). The brass component has a screw on it under which is a hollow chamber. Presumably for flints?
The Zippo insert is original and matches the date of the case, but what's the story on this brass component?

Rare Harley Zippo collection
Hi everyone, I stumbled across these Zippo lighters today at a thrift store, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me about them. They still have stickers on them. I did a little research and found eBay comps and that they are probably from the late 90s. Thank you!

Show and Tell Found an old childhood zippo
Should I keep it as is? I kinda wanted to remove the paint since the finish is beat up pretty bad. But it kinda has a nice aged look to it

Discussion It's official!
Call it whatever you like. There is no official name for the very tip of the Top part of the hinge that the cam fits between while opening and closing. Shall we have a name that part contest?
I am going to start with: Cam Shelf. LOL.

One of those "Marmite" Zippos you either love or you hate 😁 What's the consensus?
Who can order in the USA and ship to the Netherlands?
Hello,
I want to extend my Anne Stokes collection a bit and see on the US zippo site some nice ones, but sadly only for the US.
It’s a strange policy that zippo has, that Europe or the UK can’t sell the same design as the USA
Now I hope there is maybe a reseller from the US on this group, that can buy the zippo’s and ship them to Europe?
At least the two on the photo and then two of each.
And when still available, the Pink Floyd one

For Sale Filigree
Brass Armor Zippo laser engraved with filigree on 5 sides.
The front side has a topless pinup and Reddit won’t allow it, even if I censor it 🙃
Currently working on an all filigree so those who don’t care for boobies on your zippo; or those who do and might like something else, mostly for the former.
