hand engraved test samples for the 60th anniversary design

This design was released on a limited edition sterling silver Zippo in 1992 only !

These hand engraved test samples done on a high polished chrome and on a solid brass

Zippo do have a rough unfinished surface because they seem not to have been polished

after they were engraved. At a closer look the designs are not that accurate done as can

be seen especially on the solid brass one where some of the lines cross the outer border.

The 60th Anniversary commemorative was the first limited edition Collectible of the Year

and the first midnight chrome finish produced by Zippo. It was the first lighter produced

specifically for the collectors market, and was available only in the year it was produced.

The response to this first ever commemorative was overwhelmingly positive,

prompting Zippo to issue a Collectible of the Year in every subsequent year.
