    Description

    Up for auction/sale is a vintage solid brass Zippo lighter, which has a black enamel eagle on a deep blue Harley Davidson badge background. After quite a bit of research, it seems Harley Davidson began making simpler brass Zippo lighters in the 1970s, with much simpler designs than we see in 2020.
    Using Google, Bing, eBay, I was unable to locate any other examples of this lighter, but the year 1990 is on the underside. Today, these brass lighters are manufactured in mass, but these earlier pieces are extremely difficult to locate and would make a great addition to anyone's Harley Davidson collection.
    This lighter is in excellent mechanical condition, the lid still snaps when open, there's no wobble or misalignment in the lid, the wheel and striker are tight, the wick is straight, and the cotton underneath is still relatively clean. There is some mild enamel wear, 30 years of an unpolished life, and a few tiny areas of corrosion, but it's 100% sound.
    I have described this lighter as best I can, but to augment my description I have provided several high-resolution images of the lighter from varying angles to allow for a detailed review of quality, condition, and desirability.
    This will be packaged with care to best ensure this very difficult to find piece of Harley Davidson and Zippo history arrives as pictured and described.
