2. The Zippo’s internal structure has remained virtually unchanged since the late 1930’s.
3. More than 300,000 Zippos were sold between the year 1934 and 1940 through the "Punchboard" advertisement. Eventually, the government banned this way of selling them as it was considered a "Game of chance".
4. A Zippo lighter saved the life of an American soldier fighting in the Belgian territory; an enemy bullet was fired straight to his heart only to be stopped by his Zippo.
5. If all the available Zippo lighters in the world were placed back to back, they could go from the United States to England and back again! That’s over 6000 miles of Zippo lighters back to back!
