    Description

    Vintage Zippo Lighter.  Features factory engraving by Zippo of USS Fort Snelling LSD 30. You can see the helicopter landing. The graphics shows some wear and there is some paint missing, see pics. It looks like the soldier that owned this lighter did some light initials scratched into the lighter. I tried to show it on pics, but it's very faint. Looks like initials on front and back. Maybe someone with better eyes can make it out.
    The USS Fort Snelling had a rich history, including: searching for lost atomic bomb, picking up Gemini space capsule, and West Pac Vietnam.
    Has a fairly tight hinge, still has the famous Zippo click.
    This is a used item, and shows some wear consistent with use, age, and storage, see pics. I never attempt to clean, modify, or repair any items. They are listed as found.
    I will be selling some other lighters, so be sure to check out other listings and keep checking. I"ll be adding more.
    Comes from a smoke free and pet free home.
    I"m not an expert on anything, please ask all questions before bidding and I'll answer to the best of my ability.
    International bidders welcome, there may be delays in customs for unknown reasons, it's not my fault. International tracking requires at least regular Priority Mail (not flat rate)
