This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 12/7/2013

1964 Pittsburgh Pirates facsimile autograph lighter. This is an exceptionally scarce piece, coveted by fans of tobacco collectibles as well as sports memorabilia. The lighters were made available only to the team’s front office personnel, leaving outsiders to ineffectually admire the lighter with its clear, tiny signature likenesses of Clemente, Stargell, Mazeroski, Face, Burgess, Virdon, and 13 others. On the bottom is stamped “Super Aromatic Lighter Japan” as well as the brand, “Noble.”
