Rare Post WWII Japan made antique gag practical joke cigarette lighter no flame:
$50.00

This is a practical joke cigarette/cigar lighter. It looks like a working lighter, but when the lever is activated a spring loaded 'snake' like shape jumps out and goes about 6 feet in the air startling the unexpected subject. No flame - strictly a novelty item. It is marked JAPAN on the bottom and is most likely 1950's vintage from what I can tell. It looks and feels like a real lighter. It is easy to reload for the next time. I just recently found it in items I had stored away and had forgotten that it was a gag lighter. I startled myself when I pressed the lighter lever and then had to go retrieve the spring loaded object.Please look at my other listings in my store for worldwide parachute badges and other elite military items.

AIRBORNE!

With the recent huge increase in U.S. postal rates and requirement for delivery confirmation tracking, we have had to increase the shipping costs for both domestic and overseas mailings.
Additionally the cost of International mail has more than doubled so we may soon have to cease mailing items outside the U.S.
Thank you for understanding.
