NTR = not truck related.

When I was younger I collected old lighters, like Bic lighters, that were dead. Probably thought I was going to blow them all up with an M80 or something but never did. Still have a shoebox full of them?!?

Anywhoo, a friends wife heard I collected lighters and gave me a bunch of old lighters her departed dad had collected. I have to guess they are at least from the 70's as her dad passed in the early 80's.

They have clear "tanks" and one has a USMC logo that floats(?) in the gas, and the other has a silver half-dollar (1964) in the tank. They both say Scripto on them.

Anyone?
