About this deal
For something to qualify as ‘trench art’, it has to have been made by a soldier during either the First or the Second World War, while on the front lines (or while on active duty during the wars) using materials available on the battlefield.

Den første vare i fysisk besiddelse, når det drejer sig om regelmæssig levering af varer over en bestemt periode. Did soldiers in the First World War ever make their own trench-art lighters out of scraps of brass and copper that they found lying around in the trenches, probably while in hospital or on leave, to kill time and have something to do? Note - some info is missing, as I don't own an early or middle period 6700, but I have seen some, so I've made some assumptions where the information seems obvious. Also, the dates of manufacture for all lighters are educated guesses. Cigarette lighters as we recognise them today were invented in the late 1800s. Early models were unbelievably crude by modern standards, but IMCO got the idea that if they could come up with one good, cheap, simple design, then they could mass produce them, and become the Henry Ford Company of cigarette lighters! In the days before stainless steel, a lot of metal products were made of brass, because of its ability to resist rusting and most forms of corrosion. The biggest source of brass in Austria at the time was the millions and millions and MILLIONS of leftover shell-casings from the First World War.IMCO has produced and sold - worldwide - over half a billion lighters to date. The IMCO brand stands for superb quality in the middle-of-the-range market. All lighters meet all ISO 9994 standards and are classified as "semi-luxury". This means that, according to European regulations, no child-proofing is required. A ‘trench’ lighter is a type of ‘trench art’. ‘Trench art’ is anything decorative or functional, handmade by soldiers while out in the fields or in the trenches during battle, or by soldiers recuperating or on-leave from the battlefront, using materials scavenged or saved or found on the battlefield. Usually such items are things like shell casings, bullet-casings, and metal from food tins or cans of meat and so on. Most people in lighter-collecting circles will likely have heard of IMCO, and if you haven’t, here’s a brief introduction: Was Sie nicht über Königin Victoria und das Kensington-System wissen on Victoria and the Kensington System

Får den sidste vare i fysisk besiddelse, når det drejer sig om en aftale om flere forskellige varer, bestilt i én ordre, men leveres enkeltvis eller af flere omgange. During the conflict, ZIPPO ceased manufacturing lighters for the civilian market, and sold exclusively to the armed forces. Because brass was required for the war-effort, wartime Zippos were made exclusively of steel – the first, last and only time in their history when the lighter wasn’t made of brass (except of course, for when it was made of silver or gold). Blowing gently on the captured sparks creates the necessary heat to ignite the rope, creating an ember. This ember can be used to light a cigarette or start a fire. Since it doesn’t require lighter fluid and doesn’t actually create a flame, the ‘foxhole’ lighter was popular with sailors, soldiers and campers, and anybody else who might need to start a fire without the aid of combustibles, matches or a conventional cigarette lighter.
