Found this item. I think it is very unique, however I know nothing about it other than it is a lighter and it is musical. There are no markings that I can find on this item. Can anyone tell me anything about it ? I have never seen one before...any information would be appreciated. I am not sure what it is made from but I know a magnet will not "stick" to any part of it except the striker for the lighter and one screw in the back. Again, thanks for any info. The height of this is approx. 12 in or so, about the height of a Barbie Doll.
This lighter was made in Germany circa 1950's and would normally have a shield in his left hand (look for two small holes in his gaunlet) and on many of the shields the US sector of Germany would be on the top half and some of the shields would have the crest of a town or city on it, hope this helps you.
