The lighter looks like a souvenir from Amsterdam's redlight district, NL = Netherlands. HH, Mike
 
Peep Show Lighter...Now that is a find right there. Love it. Congrats. :hello2:
 
I didn't know that butane lighters were used long ago, not to say that I may be wrong ??? I know light fluid lighters were used in earlier times. Either way it looks to be very unique. I'd like to know more about it, if anyone can identify it's origin. Sweet nontheless :thumbsup: WTG on your Ih finds as well :thumbsup:
