Bidspirit auction | A Group of Novelty Pistol

A Group of Novelty Pistol Lighters - A group of Japanese novelty cigarette lighters modeled after mid-19th-century percussion-style pocket pistols. The collection features two examples with brass-toned metal plating and two with chrome-toned plating. One brass-plated model possesses a significantly longer barrel assembly than the other three. Each lighter is constructed with a die-cast metal body finished in black, featuring decorative scalloped metal inlays on the sides. The triggers and hammers serve as the mechanical ignition system for a flint and wick mechanism. One brass-finished trigger features the impressed text MADE IN JAPAN. Dimensions: 6 to 8 in long.
