Manufacturer: Scripto Inc.
Title: Scripto Vu-Lighter
Type: Gas Lighter
Material: plastic, brass
Release year: 1950
Country: United States

Scripto lighter was one of the first plastic lighters, and it allows you to visually estimate the amount of remaining fuel in it. Its mechanism was equipped with pumping fuel to the wick, for this is a special button on the lighter side, with the wick itself was constantly immersed in the fuel chamber. Such a mechanism is practically excluded the evaporation of gasoline, as in ordinary lighters where the wick was inserted directly into the fuel tank. Scripto - absolute champion of tightness of gasoline lighters: even now you can find instances that have survived for 50-60 years in the fuel gas chamber.
