 How many Zippo's do you have ???? I have a few that I kept over the years and I like them as collectables

Up to just around 500 with a recent early 60's mint Boston and Maine Railroad Zippo off the 'Bay for a steal :)
I am waiting for Zippo to release the 2006 State Quarters set, they usually come out in Feb/March, only 500 sets released worldwide, I have all of them so far.

My collection is railroads, Pin-up girls (over 100), Americana, rock-n-roll groups, beer/liquor and musical instruments.  I just missed an Ampeg amplfiers Zippo last week, darn it!

Cheers,
Griff

 Oh yeah, 2 Zippo watches (quartz, one with a Citizen movement, another with an ETA chronograph from the ill-fated zippowatches.com) and a Japan only Zippo with a pocket watch attached :P

...and this one too!

Cheers,
Griff

 Cheapest Seiko I ever bought, 1976, mint in original box for a BIN of $25 :D

Trouble is, ever since I found it I have been searching for other watch company Zippos.  There are Rolex Zippos (an odd combo if you ask me,  a Rolex DuPont would make more sense), but they go for too much even beat up.

Cheers,
Griff
