Condition Report
- Case: Good vintage condition. The colorful American Airlines graphic remains highly intact with minimal fading or paint loss. The case shows honest signs of pocket carry, with fine micro-scuffs and minor surface marks. The 5-barrel hinge has slight play but functions well, and the lid snaps shut tightly.
- Insert: Original 1992 insert present. The chimney shows heavy carbon buildup and typical flint wheel wear from past usage. The wheel turns, but the lighter currently needs a fresh replacement flint and fluid to be fully functional.
- Inclusions: Lighter only. Box and paperwork are not included.
