Circa 1983. Zippo high polished chrome 'slim' lighter with multicolored ultra-lite facades including it's back. As with many 'old-school' graphics, each lighter's casing ( in this case it's front emblem) was silk screened under a designed template, acid etched & paint-filled with various colors. Those were the long- lasting beauty of paint-filled artworks.
Zippo Slims were introduced in late 1956.
'Ultra-Lite' is an acrylic material attached onto some models since 1978, including the scrimshaw's boat & lighthouse model still in production.
