Camel Pocket Cigarette LighterTobacco Advertising Collectible
We are pleased to offer this hard-to-find Camel pocket cigarette lighter. This old advertising smoking collectible features an embossed Joe camel on the front facing left and the word "Camel" written in relief above him. When the lighter is removed from the case, you can see the Patent Number Pat No 96 3 25535.5. This indicates it was patented in 1991. At that time, a smoker could collect Camel bucks coupons ,found on the backs of packs of Camels as currency, to order products - including this lighter. Joe camel was a big deal. Eventually it was deemed as marketing to kids and Joe was snuffed.
This lighter has a lift handle at the top which must be lifted in order to ignite the flame. It is made of a silver tone metal, which gives the appearance at first sight of being silver plated. However, the metal is pewter. This lighter stands 2-1/2" tall. Just a wonderful antique lighter that is sure to be a welcomed addition to your tobacciana advertising collection.
