That superman one is awesome. I have a few variants of the silent flame (1939 NY World Fair and Statue of Liberty), but have never even seen the Superman one. I missed the Heritage auction on it, but found this old Hakes auction where one went for a small fortune.
Love it, thanks. Just curious if you own any Superman lighters? Heritage was auctioning off a pretty boss one recently.
Oh wait, just noticed you already namechecked Supes above!

Same one went for a bananas $3800 at Heritage a few weeks ago. Nothing captures the joy cigarettes like the Man of Steel.
