 |
|
Here's an interesting piece I acquired last year from an ex VW service manager from Stateside Motors. These lighters were used as table settings at a managers seminar at the Waldorf back in 1966. The managers were allowed to take one home following the seminar. I have seen similar "Ski Boot" lighters on the net, but nothing from VW? I'm curious, anyone else come across these in their travels?

I've owned 2 of these. Yours is missing a matching ski pole.
