Ronson Lighters For Sale
RONSON CADET ENGLAND LEATHER WRAPPED
This is a nice example of a fairly common Ronson pocket lighter made only in England- the Cadet- covered in real leather- calfskin I think- it was a user of mine for a few years so the leather is a bit dirty- but it has been mechanically reconditioned and works first time every time like it should- so if you are looking for a dependable everyday work horse, this would be the one for you! Price for this piece is $35 plus shipping and insurance to your location. For further information and more photos, please inquire. 
RONSON ENGLISH BANKER RARE MAROON SHAGREEN COVER
This is a nice example of a not too common Ronson Banker model- made in England- in a very unusual finish- it has been covered in a dark maroon shagreen- usually described as sharkskin- but my research leads me to believe it is actually sting ray skin as this is the only covering I can find available in dark maroon- whatever the case may be, shagreen is coveted for it’s almost indestructible finish- lasts for many many years with no apparent wear. Of course it has been mechanically reconditioned and works like new- first time every time- and will make a great collector piece or a standout conversation starter as an everyday user if you prefer. Price for this piece is $95 plus shipping and insurance to your location. For further information and more photos, please inquire.
RONSON WINDLITE ADVERTISER NEW IN BOX
This is new in the box example of the Ronson Windlite- their attempt to gain market share from the world’s most famous flip top windproof lighter-Zippo- and it had its share of success as there are still a lot of them out there. This one is brand new in the box finished in butler (satin) chrome with a high polish chrome base plate--and has the original use and care booklet with it as well. It has had the gasket checked and a new flint installed and works like the new piece that it is. It is engraved on one side FIDELITY CHEMICAL PRODUCTS and the back side has the original instruction sticker still attached. Windlites are really nice heavyweight pocket lighters perfect for every day use. Price for this piece is $40 plus shipping and insurance to your location. For further information and more photos, please inquire.
RONSON STANDARD WORLD WAR II POCKET LIGHTER
This is a good example of one of two of the only models of lighters produced by Ronson during World War II- the Standard- it is made from a steel body that is copper plated ( all available brass was directed to the war effort )- and then painted in a dark green crackle paint- available only to servicemen through military distribution. The piece has been fully serviced and works just like it should. It comes with what I believe to be the original felt carrying case and for sure the original wartime box which is clearly marked as such. All 4 box corners are split which is also common and which I choose to leave as is. I have seen a number of these painted black but very few of them with this green crackle finish. Price for this piece is $75 plus shipping and insurance to your location. For further information and more photos, please inquire.
RONSON JUBILEE STERLING SILVER TABLE LIGHTER
This is a decent example of the only production sterling silver table lighter made by Ronson- named the Jubilee- it is a sterling silver weighted base with a silver plated fitment body in the 1950s Essex design. There is a matching urn which can often be found for sale as a toothpick holder. This piece has damage to the base and various little dings here there and everywhere, but still very handsome piece and mechanically unaffected by the cosmetics. It has been completely rebuilt and has a chrome thumb piece and snuffer as silver plated parts were unavailable- hard to tell the difference but a necessary comment. Works like new and will serve you well as an everyday user for a long time if that is your need. Price for this piece is $95 plus shipping and insurance to your location. For further information and more photos, please inquire.
