Ronson Penciliter!

[jasperjb]

A lighter and pencil all in one!

 

Does anybody have one? What do you think of them?
They can be had for $20AUSD!

I have a Ronson and a few others (http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/bb413/chthulhu/Pencils/02%20Gimmicks/Cigarette%20Lighters/Lighters_02_IMG_2427_zpsbff8a43f.jpg). I think the Ronson is the most attractive of the lot, but they're just curiosities to me.

Interesting collection. And a fun subject to collect. Did the have a wick with petrol? or a small liquid gas chamber?

A wick, a flint and striker, and naptha for fuel. All of those are liquid-fueled.

Are there any fountain pen lighters? I'd dig one.

My other collections are lighters, cameras and gramophone needle tins, so anything that bridges the gap (lighters shaped like pens, lighters shaped like cameras) is in my cupboard. I have a Pencilighter; never seen a fountain pen one though (although you'd think someone would have put them together!).

I don't recall ever seeing a fountain pen and lighter combo; lots of pencil-lighter combos, though, of which the Ronsons are the best made. The later streamlined ones are the most common, but I'm partial to the early ones which are chunky and often have colorful celluloid barrels -- very steampunk look to them.

Celluloid and lighters? What an interesting combination.
