Condition

10/20/2026: In my opinion regarding LOT : 1017- please note that I am not an expert on lighters and can only comment on their apparent physical condition, operational status cannot be fully confirmed as the lighters were not tested with fuel, all four examples are overall intact and present well, with scattered small nicks, rubs, patination and general surface wear consistent with age and handling, gilt examples exhibit varying degrees of finish wear and oxidation, with more pronounced wear to the floral decorated example, the green paneled example appears largely intact with minor surface wear to the metal mounts, all lids open smoothly and remain secure, side rollers appear to operate as intended and engage the upper striker wheels, the silver-tone example produces a small spark, all examples may benefit from routine cleaning, fuel, flint and/or servicing prior to use, overall the group retains a strong presentation with wear commensurate with vintage age and use
