Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A photographic history of the family-owned Pennsylvania company that became a household name and a global success story. The Zippo Manufacturing Company was founded in 1932 in Bradford, Pennsylvania, by George G. Blaisdell, who designed the first Zippo lighter in 1933; since then, Zippo has produced nearly four hundred million lighters. The product line eventually expanded to include tape measures and pocket knives. Zippo entered the specialty advertising market in 1935, when the Kendall Refinery ordered five hundred lighters that displayed its name—and since then, the Zippo lighter has become a commemorative showcase for corporate logos, special events, and famous places throughout the United States and around the world. Zippo has been owned and operated by the Blaisdell family for more than seventy years. Zippo Manufacturing Company contains photographs of the Blaisdells, the Zippo Riders, the Zippo ski slope, the Zippo car, special-edition lighters, and scenes from the town of Bradford. Zippo archives and private collections have yielded rare photographs of Zippo employees at work, company and collector events, and other highlights in the company's history—making for a lively journey though this unique piece of American culture.

Book excerpt: George Blaisdell's lifetime-guaranteed lighter -- the Zippo -- has become an icon, instantly recognizable for its simplicity of design. Blaisdell designed the first Zippo in 1933; he sold just 82 units in the first month of business.

Now the more than 300 million lighters that have left the Zippo Manufacturing Co. in Bradford, PA, have become highly collectible. This book shows how the Zippo became an American Legend & tells the complete history of the lighter from its beginning to the present day. It discusses Zippo in entertainment, in advertising & in the movies, & provides essential advice & info. for collectors. Color photos.
