I have one of these also, but it is not discolored.
Would love to know about it as well
I have one of these too but mine has more corrosion on the bottom, would like to know how valuable it is.
I also have one of these. To my knowledge, manufactured in the Western Zone of Germany soon after WWII ended? or was this a product of Western Russia?? Very rare collectable.
Do you know for sure what the WZ stands for?
Well i'm pretty sure they didn't have butane lighters until the mid 50's , but this lighter might suprise me, probably not but maybe.
I also have 1 of these lighters and am looking to find out any information on this lighter. If anyone knows where I could search or anything that might help me please leave a comment and I will reply. I greatly appreciate any help or advise you may have that could help me. Thank You Sincerely, Cheryl
