The Code on the Case Back. A characteristic element of Zippo production from 1933 to today is the use of a code on the back of each lighter, which identifies the year of production. The idea, born with a practical purpose, then became a source of interest for collectors looking for older lighters. Until 1957 only the patent registration number was indicated, from 1958 dots were introduced, from 1966 bars, first vertical and then oblique. From 1986 double coding was used, with the indication of a letter (from A to L) for the twelve months, and a Roman numeral for the year of production (IX=1993, 2001 the Roman numerals were replaced by Arabic numerals. Even the meaning of these codes, and especially the identification bars, have given rise to the most imaginative interpretations, among which the most recurrent is the statement that, ultimately, the more bars the lighter has, the more windproof it is. Find out the age of your Zippo lighter by checking the correspondence of the code printed on the back with the 3 illustrated tables. The Zippo is available in two different sizes: Regular version height 55 mm width 40 mm thickness 10 mm weight 60 g. Slim version height 55 mm width 30 mm thickness 8 mm weight 40 g. HOW TO LOAD A ZIPPO. There is only one official way for reloading, although many reload the ZIPPO in their own way. Use only original petrol. Remove the boiler from the box. Raise the trigger lever. Turn the boiler upside down and insert it into the box. Lift the sponge. Fill in petrol for 5 seconds. Wait a few seconds for absorption. Fill in more petrol for 5 seconds. Replace the sponge. Remove the boiler and turn it over.
