how about a photo ?

I did not think that disposable lighters were available until around 1972? Was there still a Shelby office in LA then?

I am not a smoker but I couldn't remember ever seeing a disposable lighter before the early 70's.

Cool piece though,

In my years of collecting and researching, never seen a disposable lighter like this, may be beensomething that was made up by somebody, hell, maybe its a real SA piece, i doubt it, but ive been wrong many times before

 

Looks cool, I have never seen one before. Is this in any of the old catalogs?

Here is Brian's picture.

 

I'm not sure how badly you would like to find some "Pit Stop" but you might want to check out eBay item#280416168776.

Wow, $795.00 for 40 year old can of deodorant? I guess that is for the Shelby collector that truly already has everything else.

 

Yeah, and it smells like burn't rubber! I still have a can.

 

Yeah that's true because of this it is becoming worse.

 

Hey Guys,


I have recently bought a collection of literature and memorabilia from a man who has been collecting since the early sixties when he was growing up in So Cal taking tours of the factory in his spare time....

I found one of these lighters in the collection. Everything else in the collection is original and some very rare material! So im not saying this lighter is an original shelby american item. All im saying is that it came in a collection of about 200+ original shelby american period items and this man claims to have received it in the period...

Best Regards,
