Sterling Silver - Made in Canada
Wind-King Lighter
Early 1940's
'Chromium Foxhole lighter'
Made by Myron Gray, New York, N.Y.
Box includes lighter, two extra wicks and 15 flints.
DIRECTIONS : The WIND-KING lighter needs no fuel-
it is the wick that burns! All you have to do is to char the top of
a new wick once by applying a match to it.
After that, all that is necessary is to raise the wick within
range of the spark wheel-about 1/4 of an inch-and turn
the spark wheel. Presto! It ignites. To extinguish, pull the
wick down thus cutting off the air, and the wick ceases to burn.
