About this document

The Zippo Titanium Millennium Edition Information Leaflet is an original factory-issued document created for the 1999 Zippo Millennium Edition, celebrating the approach of the new millennium and Zippo’s history since 1933. The leaflet introduces this limited-edition collectible as Zippo’s first computer-engraved Collectible of the Year, featuring the message “One World … One Future” and a custom-designed commemorative case. It also highlights Zippo’s innovative TVD Titanium coating, described as a durable and environmentally conscious finish developed using technology related to the Space Shuttle’s thermal protection. Production of the Millennium Edition Zippo was limited to 100,000 authenticated pieces worldwide, with a distinctive bottom stamp and Certificate of Authenticity. The leaflet also provides historical context about Zippo Manufacturing Company, noting that more than 325 million Zippo lighters had been manufactured since 1933 and sold in more than 120 countries. As original Zippo ephemera from 1999, this leaflet is a valuable reference for collectors researching the Zippo Millennium Edition, Titanium Zippo, Collectible of the Year, Zippo history and the transition into the 21st century.
