The Zippo Vintage with Slashes model 260 is a High Polish Chrome lighter from the Vintage Look Series 1937, featuring the characteristic diagonal slashes at the four corners of its rounded case. The front is engraved with the words “An American Classic” inside a circular emblem, adding a distinctly traditional American character to the vintage-inspired design. Its rounded edges and period-style construction recall the appearance of Zippo’s early lighter designs, while the mirror-polished chrome finish gives the piece a clean and elegant look. This particular example was manufactured in 1997, making it a genuine vintage Zippo from the late 1990s and an interesting example of the Vintage Series 1937. Made in the USA and fully refillable, the Zippo 260 combines classic Zippo craftsmanship, the iconic “An American Classic” design and distinctive vintage styling in one memorable lighter.
