Here for sale is the most amazing piece of trench art I have come across.Hand made WW1 lighter of a large size in the shape of a book,dated to the front 1914, 15, 16, 17, so I assume made in 1917. ( let's hope he made it to the end). Maker not known to family.7.5cm tall by 5 cm wide.1.5cm deep.Initials etched to the front either DJ, DT, DP, ( we think DJ but you can decide - see photo). This is most amazing personalised piece of trench art, dated and engraved beautifully. Well made, as it was used by my father- in- law in the 60's and still in very nice condition. Hinge is good. No flint.I have not cleaned it, there is house paint on it which will easily remove but I didn't want to clean it.
