1953 Steelcase Test Model Town & Country Cow in Wreath Zippo 

This model lighter is listed in David Poore's Zippo book on page 73 as a test model. The word rare generally gets over used, but it fits with this one. It is rare to see T&C art on brushed chrome. A zippo artist created this cow as a test to see if it would go into production. The lighter is used, and has handling light scratches but incredibly no across the paint. The paint area is deep with a thick layer of artwork paint. Correct insert and tight hinge. 

For the serious collector. 

We grade this lighter Good 83.

Collectors Flame General Grading System
80+ Good - Good represents a usable lighter that shows wear may have some scratches that do not affect the design and/or a small ding. These lighters are serviceable and have been obviously used. Some paint or design elements may be worn.
