VINTAGE FIGURAL STRIKER LIGHTER IN SHAPE OF CURRIE FLOOR BUFFER-RARE AS IT GETS:
$300.00


This is easily my favorite figural striker lighter, which is designed and modeled after a vintage CURRIE floor buffer! It is as rare as any striker gets, given its incredible condition, unique design with a moveable hinged assembly, and even an old time electric plug in cord! The plug itself has been reproduced by hand to match the cord, and proportions of buffer. The paint next to flint striker holder has very light, thin scratches, as is typical of most vintage strikers, which also denotes use at some point. Otherwise, paint condition is excellent. Bottom felt has a small patch of deterioration along one end, but nothing significant particularly since this sits on the felt anyway.

CURRIE was an early manufacturer of floor buffers such as this, but I cannot find much info on them. Clearly, it either changed its name or was bought out by another company? Any info would be appreciated. Nonetheless, this is as rare a striker as it is an old advertising or commemorative piece. Most collectors have never seen one...

Although I never warrant nor guarantee the actual working condition of any old old lighter as these are untested with fluid. I have no reason to believe that the lighter will not work if desired. Lighter collectors know my reputation as a fellow collector and I only sell quality lighters, as this one is from my personal case.

Nonetheless is being sold in an AS IS condition. Please note I do not accept returns absent some material misrepresentation in the listing.



Please ask any questions prior to offerding. I only ship to the contiguous US states, using UPS Pack and Ship Guarantee program. Kindly allow 5 days handling given my disability I do not drive every day.
