[QUOTE="Marcos Bello, post: 9982889, member: 88824"]Hello, thanks for having me. Found you trying to get some info regarding a lighter I've just inherited. It did belong to my father, he used to smoke but quit many years ago. It was given to him when working to a company after finishing an engineering project. There is so much info regarding this, add the little I know about old lighters, and then there is the reason I'm asking for your help. I'm pretty sure it's the real thing, not only because from what I've read regarding uneven serial numbers being a main tip to identify real Dupont lighters but because is - if memory serves - probably 60 (or more) years old. I would like to sell it for a fair price, as you can see it is fairly used, gold lacqued, I guess it works but have no idea how to test it. I have not found a serial checker but from what I've seen online seems to be an L1 model if that helps. Where would be the right place to sell it? Here maybe, Catawiki, eBay, etc? Thanks in advance for your help, and sorry if my english it's not 100 % correctly written (I'm from Spain). Best regards.
