The history of Zippo Manufacturing Company is the story of its people. From its founder George G. Blaisdell to the many Zippo employees, customers, and collectors who have all played a vital role in the company's rich history. Their loyalty and dedication have made Zippo one of America's greatest and most recognizable icons.
Zippo's diverse product line continues to grow, and now includes lighter accessories, butane multi-purpose lighters, men's and women's fragrances, lifestyle accessories, eyewear, and products for outdoor enthusiasts.
There are many Zippo collectors around the world. Their fervor and dedication to the brand are unparalleled. To enhance the collecting experience, Zippo collector clubs around the world hold meet-ups and other events throughout the year. Companies around the world continue to use Zippo lighters as an advertising and promotional tool. These advertiser lighters continue to be among collectors' favorites.
Perhaps one of the biggest influences on collecting is Zippo's ties to popular culture, Hollywood, Broadway, and the music industry. The Zippo lighter has been featured in more than 2,000 movies, stage plays, and television shows over the years. Zippo lighters have starred in such diverse productions as I Love Lucy, The X-Men, and Hairspray, the Musical. Often the lighter is a key prop, used as a device to move the plot forward or to reflect the personality of a character or time period being depicted. The famous Zippo click sound has been sampled on songs, and the lighters themselves have been featured on album covers, tattooed on rocker's skin, and wielded in Rolling Stone photo shoots.
In a world where most products are simply disposable or available with limited warranties, the Zippo pocket lighter remains backed by its famous lifetime guarantee. In more than 85 years, no one has ever spent a cent on the mechanical repair of a Zippo pocket lighter regardless of the lighter's age or condition. The Zippo pocket lighter is ingrained in American culture and is a global icon of durability and reliability.
