At the bottom of the lighter a French tax stamp - such marks were placed on all imported lighters around France from 1912 to 1950. It was an economic measure to restrict imports of lighters from other countries and to support the producers in France. By the way, followed by Belgium, too, in those years of the same policies, however, the Belgian stamps are found on the lighter rare.
