2.0 out of 5 stars
Photos features primarily the lowest quality of lighters,
By A Customer
This review is from: Collecting cigarette lighters: A price guide (Paperback)
This book appears to be a catalog of cigarette lighters that are widely available. It appears quality was not a consideration in the selection of these lighters (mostly japanese and low quality junk from the 50's-60's). These are, by and large not the items that have turned lighter collecting in to the popular hobby it is today. The saving grace of this book is the fact that it also includes about 70 pages of old catalog reprints showing some of the higher quality lighters available from the 20's-30's. It would have been nice to see some actual photographs of these lighters instead of the black and white and color drawings used in these vintage ads. However, these ads save the book, if not for these ads, the lighters photographed for this book would make it a good guide for what not to avoid in lighter collecting.
