Zippo Lighter Pouch

Introduction

The history of Zippo Manufacturing Company is the story of its people.  From its founder George G. Blaisdell, to the many Zippo employees, customers, and collectors who have all played a vital role in the company’s rich history.  Their loyalty and dedication has made Zippo one of America’s greatest and most recognizable icons.

 

1930s

The Zippo timeline begins in the early 1930s, at the Bradford Country Club in Bradford, Pennsylvania.  Mr. Blaisdell watched a friend struggle awkwardly to use a cumbersome, Austrian-made lighter.  Mr. Blaisdell noted that the lighter worked well, even in the wind, due to the unique chimney, but the appearance and design was utilitarian and inefficient.  The lighter required the use of two hands to operate and its thin metal surface was easily dented.

In late 1932 Mr. Blaisdell decided to reconstruct the Austrian lighter.  He fabricated a small rectangular case and attached a lid with a hinge.  He preserved the chimney design which protected the flame.  The result was an attractive lighter that was easily operated with one hand.  The name “Zippo” was created by Mr Blaisdell.  He liked the sound of the word “zipper” so he formed variations on the word until he settled on “Zippo,” which he felt had a “modern” sound.

The new lighter sold for $1.95 each and was backed by Mr. Blaisdell’s, now famous, unconditional lifetime guarantee ­–”It works or we fix it free.™” The application for the original Zippo patent was filed on May 17, 1934, and patent number 2032695 was granted on March 3, 1936.  That first Zippo lighter, produced in 1933, is on display at the Zippo/Case Museum in Bradford.

In the mid-30’s, Kendall Refining Company in Bradford, placed an order for 500 Zippo lighters.  These lighters are believed to be the first company-advertised lighters produced by Zippo and are highly prized collectibles.

 

1940s

World War II had a profound impact on Zippo.  Upon America’s entry into the war in 1941, Zippo ceased production of lighters for consumer markets and dedicated all production to the U.S. military.  This initiative led to the production of the steel-case Zippo lighter with black crackle finish.  The fact that millions of American military personnel carried the lighter into battle was a significant catalyst in establishing Zippo as an American icon throughout the world.  Supplying the military market resulted in full production for the plant and enabled Zippo to become financially strong and made it a viable company.

At the end of the war in 1945, Zippo returned to selling lighters to a peacetime America and resumed producing lighters for the consumer market.  A promoter at heart, Mr. Blaisdell wanted to hit the road with a car that looked like a Zippo lighter and in 1947 the Zippo Car was born.

1950s

On August 1, 1950 Zippo was issued its second patent, number 2517191.  The design of the Zippo lighter remains basically the same to this day, with minor improvements.

Beginning in the mid-50’s, date codes were stamped on the bottom of every Zippo lighter.  The original purpose was for quality control, but the codes have become an invaluable tool for collectors.

In 1956 Zippo launched the Slim lighter, which was a major milestone.  This slightly smaller version of the Zippo lighter was designed to appeal to women but much to his surprise also appealed to men.

1960s

In the 1960’s concert-goers began raising the Zippo flame as a salute to favorite performers, a gesture later dubbed the “Zippo Moment.”

In 1962 Zippo produced its first non-lighter product.  The steel pocket tape measure, or “rule,” as it was called, had a design that resembled the famous lighter.  Other items have been added and deleted from the Zippo line since the 1960s. Many were primarily geared to the promotional products division including key chains, golf greenskeepers, pen-and-pencil sets and the ZipLight pocket flashlight.

 

1970s

Mr.  Blaisdell passed away on October 3, 1978.  He is remembered not only for inventing the Zippo lighter, but also for his generosity and kind spirit.  After his passing, his daughters, Harriett B. Wick and Sarah B. Dorn, inherited the business.

During the 1970s Zippo began expanding to overseas markets.

1980s

In the 1980s the company was owned by six members of the Blaisdell family, including Mr. Blaisdell’s daughters and their children.

 

1990s

In 1993 Zippo acquired W.R. Case and Sons Cutlery Company.  Case’s rich heritage began when it was founded in 1889.  The company moved to Bradford in 1905.  Case manufacturers premium hand-crafted knives including traditional folding pocket knives and fixed blade sporting knives to limited-edition commemoratives and collectibles.

 The Zippo/Case Museum opened in July 1997.  The 15,000-square-foot facility includes a store and museum.  It is also home to the world-famous Zippo Repair Clinic, where visitors can watch the repair process take place.

 

2000s

In the fall of 2002, Zippo obtained trademark registration for the shape of the Zippo lighter.  This was a major milestone to help protect the brand from counterfeiters.

Also in the early 2000’s Zippo launched the first Zippo MPL , multi-purpose lighter, a refillable utility-style lighter.

2010s

In February 2010 Zippo acquired the Ronson Consumer Products Company brand of lighters and fuel.

In 2010 the company introduced an all-metal hand warmer, launching the Zippo Outdoor products.  The hand warmer uses Zippo premium lighter fluid and provides a steady source of heat longer than any other product on the market.

Zippo’s continued expansion in overseas markets, particularly India and China, as well as strong domestic sales led to record sales increases in 2011 and 2012.

In 2011 the Zippo Outdoor product selection expanded to include an emergency fire starter kit and flex neck utility lighter.

In 2012, during its 80th anniversary year, Zippo production surpassed the landmark 500 millionth lighter.

Also in 2012, the Zippo/Case Museum was remodeled to better reflect the Zippo brand.  The new modern design features a combination of rich and rugged textures, like leather and brick, and a mix of vintage artwork and lifestyle photography.

In 2013 Zippo launched a line of robust Zippo-branded camping gear and fire accessories.

 

TODAY

Today, George B. Duke, Mr. Blaisdell’s grandson, is the sole owner and Chairman of the Board of Zippo.  Mark Paup is the company’s President and CEO.

Zippo’s diverse product line continues to grow, and now includes lighter accessories, butane multi-purpose lighters, men’s and women’s fragrances, lifestyle accessories, eyewear, and products for outdoor enthusiasts.

There are many Zippo collectors around the world. Their fervor and dedication to the brand is unparalleled. To enhance the collecting experience, Zippo collector clubs around the world hold meet ups and other events throughout the year.

Companies around the world continue to use Zippo lighters as an advertising and promotional tool.  These “advertiser” lighters continue to be among collectors’ favorites.

Perhaps one of the biggest influences on collecting is Zippo’s ties to popular culture, Hollywood, Broadway, and the music industry. The Zippo lighter has been featured in more than 2,000 movies, stage plays and television shows over the years. Zippo lighters have “starred” in such diverse productions as “I Love Lucy” “The X-Men” and “Hairspray – the Musical.” Often the lighter is a key prop, used as a device to move the plot forward or to reflect the personality of a character or time period being depicted.  The famous Zippo “click” sound has been sampled on songs, and the lighters themselves have been featured on album covers, tattooed on rockers’ skin, and wielded in Rolling Stone photo shoots.

In a world where most products are simply disposable or available with limited warranties, Zippo remains backed by its famous lifetime guarantee.  In more than 84 years, no one has ever spent a cent on the mechanical repair of a Zippo lighter regardless of the lighter’s age or condition.  The lighter is ingrained in American culture and is a global icon of durability and reliability.
