    Description

    Rare hard-to-find antique early World War One brass double-sided trench cigarette lighter featuring images of a Red Cross rescue dog who has returned with a cap in its mouth to indicate it's found a wounded soldier on one side, and another dog urinating/peeing on an enemy German picklehaube spiked helmet on the other side. Based on the style of cap in the dog's mouth, I believe this is likely a British lighter. Flint wheel will turn, but needs oiling/lubrication and/or adjustment. Needs new flint. Lighter-fluid refill cap easily screws on and off. Approximately 2 1/8 inches tall, 1 3/4" wide, 1/4" thick. Collectible
