Vintage Mid-Century Roadside Souvenir Lot: Working Watch Lighter & Mini Bottle Lighter in Howard Johnson's Pouch

Up for sale is a spectacular mid-century estate lot discovered together inside its original travel home! This unique collection features a premium French-made mechanical timepiece lighter, a Japanese novelty lighter, and a classic piece of Americana advertising.

1 Vintage "Banker" Watch-Lighter Combo: Features a mechanical clock embedded in a gorgeous vertical-ribbed chrome pocket lighter body. The clean dial reads "Banker / Shock Protected / Antimagnetic." The base is clearly stamped with the prestigious manufacturer mark: "ROBBY / MADE IN FRANCE."

1 Mini Beer/Liquor Bottle Novelty Lighter: A clever, compact pocket lighter styled as a miniature bottle decorated with playing cards (Ace of Hearts). The bottom is stamped with the historical phrase "PAT. APPLIED FOR."

1 Vintage Howard Johnson's Zipper Pouch: Classic retro white vinyl travel pouch featuring the legendary orange roof logo and the iconic "Host of the Highways" slogan.

Condition Highlights (Please Read):

Watch Mechanical Status: Checked and fully operational and ticking! The sub-seconds hand at the bottom of the dial sweeps cleanly. The time-setting mechanism functions perfectly when the side crown knob is pulled out.

Lighter Mechanical Status: Both the Robby lighter and the bottle lighter are entirely empty of fuel. They are untested for spark or ignition and are being sold as beautiful, historically intact vintage collector items.

Cosmetic Condition: Excellent vintage shape. The chrome on the lighters maintains a high-shine mirror finish with only light, age-appropriate surface wear. The Howard Johnson's vinyl pouch is completely intact with a fully functional zipper and vibrant lettering.

Please study all high-resolution photos carefully to verify the exact cosmetic details. Items will be wrapped securely and shipped empty of fuel in accordance with postal safety regulations.
