Two new pocket lighters are Ronson’s latest contribution to help early spring selling. Shown are (left) ultra-modern ‘‘Highlite,” and the all-new “Whirlwind Imperial.”
Available in a variety of attractive finishes, and elegantly styled in modern silhouette, “Highlite” is years ahead in design. An important feature is the convenient, easy-to-fill ‘“‘swivel base.”
For outdoor usage as well as dressy occasions, the second model, the ‘“Whirlwind Imperial’ combines an exclusive windproof retractable windshield design with a large fuel capacity and, of course, the “swivel base” for easy refueling. An ideal all-purpose lighter, the “Whirlwind Imperial’ is particularly suited for lighting up in the wind, or for hunting, boating, fishing, auto trips, etc.
Producers are Ronson Corporation, 31 Fulton Street, Newark 2, N. J.
