Title: Edgar Kaiser's cigarette lighter on eBay
Post by: Gordie on March 14, 2016, 02:01:35 AM

Did you see this item on eBay?  #131751758370  I don't think that the seller knew much about Kaiser and did not know what he had.

It was a "buy it now" sale so I am glad that I did not have to get into a bidding war over it.

Very interesting. I have nearly the same lighter - mine is brass plated and has Edgar's name engraved as well as the together we build logo attached. Mine came from the secretary to Nina Kaiser, Edgar's second wife.

I'd say yours was a good find!

And yours as well.  Maybe we can compare them at the Convention in July.  Personal items from the K-F executives are hard to find.  The only other things that I have found is a 1945 K-F Annual Report with Joe Frazer's business card attached and the 1945 patent and copyright papers for the Frazer car signed by Joe Frazer.
