The lighter was invented less than a century ago and has since become an extremely popular collector's item, available in every imaginable shape and style. The contents of this richly illustrated volume range from the humble Bic (albeit with stylish James Bond designs), to the most luxurious of lighters. There are, of course, many examples of the archetypal Zippo, as well as brands like Dupont, Dunhill, and Polaire. Collectible Lighters is a perfect source on the topic for all those interested in lighters, whether vintage or novelty, elegant or fun.

Juan-Manuel Clarke also wrote Collectible Fountain Pens in the same series.
