About the Item

Rare Vintage Sarome Japanese Liquid Rabbit lighter in original box Circa 1940 Vintage Sarome “”liquid” Rabbit lighter This lighter has never been used, in original box and in perfect working condition. In the postwar years of the 1940's and 1950's, a “cigarette lighter" meant a metal oil lighter. SAROME manufactured before it started making gas lighters.. LIQUID MODEL: Produced from 1959 to 1960
The world’s first non-cotton oil lighter, known at its time for a line of ad copy: "Fill up the tank once, and travel around the world without a refill."
In a normal oil lighter, a cotton sponge soaked with fuel oil is set inside a tank. LIQUID needed no cotton sponge. Its oil fuel tank was sealed with metal only.
As an oil lighter, LIQUID was a technical basis for the production and development of SAROME's next series of gas lighters. Singed.
