Very cool lighter. Steve, tell the Zippo rep that this would be a very valuable lighter - a virtual, nay real, collector's item. He should be proud to run a limited amount. Just think of the eBay value! Not that ANY of us would part with ours. emoticon

Yep Ted, from the description it is solid brass with the matte finish. I think that it will be one cool looking lighter when done. If all works out so that we can afford them.

As Ted said, the usual minimum is 50 lighters, but I'm working with the Main man, not just a Rep and he really wants to help us out, so we will see.

I'll wait till I get a set price and then ask that everyone say who wants one, and how many they want. And we will go from there.

I'm excited about this and look forward to it. Just hope it comes to be. emoticon

I just found this thread, and I havta say this lighter is a really great tribute. I didn't get the chance to meet Larry, but he sounds like a great guy. I'd be proud to have a lighter with this wonderful tribute on it. emoticon emoticon

Re: Possible Forum Lighter!


I was just wondering about the status of the lighter. Anyone know anything?

Burl, the rep told me he would love to help us out with the lighter and that he would get back too me with the price on a limited number. I waited quite a while and then called him back. He again said, I'll get back with you. Nary a word since. I guess this guy was just leading me on and blowing in the wind......... emoticon
