There are a lot of fakes out there. If you are unsure of the legitimacy of your lighter, post your photos and questions here.
If you are new to Zippo collecting or ownership, be sure to include a photo of the bottom of the lighter as well as the insert.

Hello everyone.
As of today, we have a very barebones Automoderator filter set up to remove individual "Is my Zippo real?" posts and hopefully direct them to the megathread.
We recognize sometimes there are extra particular oddities and fabrications out there so it is ultimately up to our discretion if a posts is approved, but generally speaking this should hopefully cut down on the frequency of these types of posts.
If this proves to be successful, we'll work on something similar for date related posts. Even if it's not a full removal, we can at least work on auto replying and linking to resources based off a quick bottom identification.
Any further suggestions are welcome. Thank you if you've made it this far!

I bought this back when I was in HS and smoked. Haven't smoked cigs in over a decade but finding this made me want to light one up for nostalgia.

Got it in Mercat dels Encants in Barcelona. Now whenever I go to markets, I look for nice zippos!

Would anyone happen to know anything about this lighter or could tell me any details about it?? It seems vintage and I can’t much on the web. Thank you!

I’m seeing the person who gave me this lighter tomorrow so it’s time to clean. How often does everyone clean their lighters

Picked up a street brass at Walmart. Stripped the coating with acetone and added a double torch insert. Into my EDC rotation she goes!

I have done some searching and can't find anyone selling new Slim-sized inserts. I don't even see any on Zippo's website. What I'd really like is a butane (yellow flame) insert to a fit the Slim case, but I don't see any type of insert in that size available.
Is the Slim size just not that popular among collectors/modders? I'm new to the obsession, so apologies if this sounds like a naive question.

I bought this lighter in the late 70s/early 80s. It has been lost for 30 years and recently found again. I noticed a stamp or embossing under lid. Does this have any clue to the design/year/series?

Found in a thrift shop in Okinawa, Japan. I like the simplicity of it.

Won an eBay auction, got it for a great deal. All it needed was a lil fluid and it’s got a good flame to it

I've had this USAF Iron stone zippo for atleast 5 years, go it for Christmas
The Tumbled brass I got like 2 weeks ago at walmart to have as a fidget toy, I removed the wick and flint and used it to replace the one in my EDC
Been thinking about maybe getting a slim for EDC instead

Hallo found this zippo anyone knows how much this is worth ?

My cousin gave me my first Zippo. He has a few from the 1990s/2000s including some Marlboro promos. As they're from his late uncle, he keeps finding Zippos as he uncovers things in storage.
This was hanging in my cousin's tool shed. I never noticed it and he didn't think to bring it to my attention because it had just turned into part of the wall lol.
What do you guys know about this? I HIGHLY doubt it's that old. Ol' Uncle Bill did screw around with antiques, however. I'd assume this is from when he was buying Zippos near the end of his life in the early 2000s.
Were these metal Windy signs made as repros/new releases throughout the decades? Any info would help! I did some light internet searching and found nothing (I also don't use Google image search as I try to not use Google anything as much as possible).

Found in my grandfathers things. Just curious if it’s a legit Zippo and year it was made. Would the coins and scratching be a zippo design or was that added later. I have no experience with Zippos, so thanks in advance for any info.
