Years back, I really enjoyed collecting vintage smoking items. I favored Ronson table lighters and anything else that struck my fancy.

Nowadays. they are all packed up in a box that's gathering dust. There's a few I'd like to keep, but if the price is right....

PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE BUY/SELL RELATED COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS on Flicker. E-mail me the link(s) of the items you are interested in and we'll talk. I'm open to trade (of pens) or cash. Pens - I'm a daily user/buttery nib kind of gal and open to suggestions.

All items will be shipped CONUS. Sorry, but I will not ship these items out of the states. To many postal restrictions.

And here's the link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/biffybeans/se...57603458178510/

What an incredible collection! Somewhere in the depths of my place, I have a shoebox filled with a bunch of old lighters, many of them branded by CP Rail. I may have to try to find that box so I can snap some photos....

Cheers,

Thanks AJ. I mostly collected these items back in the early to mid 90's. I think the collection was sparked by memories of my grandmother using an old Ronson table lighter. Almost all these pieces were found at flea markets, yard sales & auctions. I remember buying only one of these pieces off of Ebay.

One of my most unique pieces is that unused Snuff-a-rette ash tray that I found at a yard sale in the middle of absolutely nowhere. Think I paid a quarter for it.

Now and again I like switching on the old movies on Turner Classics just to see if I can identify the lighters they were using. They would always use table lighters back in the day...not sure why. For effect maybe?
