It's also because it's before the disposable era. None of these lighters were disposable and would cost a significant amount, they're well made, Hardy objects built to last. Not like the .50c lighters today you throw away.
It was mostly because early strike-matches contained toxic ingredients like phosphorus. Try to light up off of them and smoking itself will kill a whole lot faster than cancer.

@@amandamuscle6408 it's called "Heartaches" by Al Bowlly. personally i love both of the songs because i like the sound of old-timey music from the 1920s-1940s/50s
Agreed and they’re also more eco friendlier than the more cheaper and disposable lighters again, a lighter was something akin to a man’s prize much like a man is with their car and so people would take great care of them as well as constantly reusing them since a piece of flint and steel and lighter fluid is far cheaper than having to buy a new lighter every week.
The ubiquitous Zippo is still being made, little style but built to last. That and one of those jerrycan fuel canisters would be good to have when lighting something would make a difference.
I was thinking about how disappointing it is that now, they make a rare few expensive af "cool" things that everyone wants. So you see everyone with or wanting the same "cool" thing, instead of unique quality things fit to the individual at more reasonable prices
@@3ducs new zippos, at least the non-graphics or special painted ones, feel cheap and don’t have that zippo ting to them because the metal is so much thinner
@@stoke101 I'm referring to their uses. The only thing some mf from 1940's gonna be lighting is his chain smoker that let's you smoke 10 cigarettes at a time.
NOT just lighters. Old toasters, tvs, fans, fridges, and toys. I've got a collection of things from the 50s-70s and soooo much of it is built so well. Most of it works perfectly. My beer fridge is from the 60s, in my garage, and works great. Yes, it costs more to run, yes it's smaller, but dang of it isn't nice, and will outlive my new fridge in the house I'm sure. It's only had some wiring replaced
I've heard so many covers of this song. The Marcels also had a good one, and some animatronic band in the 80s did a cover of the cover and they are both great honestly! The song makes its way through the decades and is still a classic!
Craftsmanship and creativity still mean something, just not for lighters. Lighters are no longer a symbol for status in the common day to day, and smoking was, and still is, the leading reason to use a lighter. You didn't take fancy lighters camping, for example.
@@reylynn6641 you’re gonna sit there and tell me that things aren’t more cookie cutter than ever. We’re 3d printing houses now and you can drive through entire neighborhoods where each house is literally the same thing. Go look at that era architecture as well. Huge difference. Not just lighters
@nymetsman321 just because it's listed for $3k doesn't mean that's what they're going for/what they're worth. Looks like one's that have actually sold are going for $600-1300 depending on condition.
@@Purplethylacinez Burning memory samples it. Most of that album is just riffing on existing famous tunes, as it is supposed to give a feeling of fading cognitive ability. Now guess what the real alzheimers patients of the time the album was written in listened to when they were young? That's right. Heartaches by Al Bowlly.
Older things always seem to be so much more ornate and unique. The way they thought to make things work back then was incredible, and stuff lasted forever
I think that might just be survivorship bias. Im sure there was cheap lighters too back in the day, that you just dont see anymore because they are in a landfill now.
@@Yipper64 no it’s not, things were usually higher quality back then. And there’s many examples. Like household appliances. They used to last forever and now it seems like they don’t really last as long when you buy them.
@@JakeyBro69it was also a super big investment to buy things back then because money was worth alot more and people didn't get paid as much a lighter like this would be more popular with the upper class lower class would still be using matches
@@Yipper64 Well, the cheap and common option was to buy matches. Until the turn of the century, people used fire strikers, pieces of steel that produced sparks when struck, to make fire. With the advent of matches, everyone lit their cigars with that instead. Lighters were only used in windy situations where a match wouldn't stay lit, so they became more common in the military. Having one just to light your cigarettes was already a statement of wealth, so most lighters reflected that in their style and design. Having a cheap lighter would be like buying a fake rolex - pretending to be wealthy. So, yes, cheap lighters existed, but there is a good reason why so many of them were fancy and long-lasting designs.
Those flames seem very strong. Makes me wonder what kind of fuel they used and how long it lasted. In fact, they might not really be for lighting cigarettes but survival (starting a fire for cooking), home utility (lighting gas lamps/cooking stoves), or in industrial settings where a pilot light needs to be lit (a locomotive) Fun stuff to think about and those lighters sure are pretty.
Because those lighters were engineered and built by actual ingenious people. Modern lighters are mainly mass produced junk thousands of units rolling off chinese factory lines all the time
convenience took over, ppl rather save time to make more money while also saving money with the more convenient options. why? cause we cant afford shit anymore lol
It's not like that kind of craftsmanship disappeared but the standard grew higher. Since smoking isn't as normal as it was back in the day, lighters simply became more normal and well, most people wouldn't need such a lighter, because most people simply don't need one in their everyday life. But you can see it in a lot of watches, phones and other every day items.
We are losing the middleclass now! That is the reason why no one needs these - you are either too poor to afford something like this or too rich to care!
Not really. Creativity is at an all-time high now. We are just looking for it in the wrong places. Back then, smoking was considered a high-class activity for the rich. Hence watchmakers were involved in the creation of such fancy lighters. The advent of plastics, cheap mass production, and the realization that smoking can give you cancer made it unprofitable for watchmakers to keep making lighters.
@bigol9223 Indie devs, but the difference is that back then, there was no big distinction to overshadow or bury good games under the spotlight hogging AAA titles from the big companies. In fact the problem nowadays is that we are seeing more games released than ever but the majority don't try anything new. Taking a look at the original playstation library there was so much genre definin games and wacky experimental stuff that it makes the current trend chasing stuff look a little pathetic.
@@Liusila Back then there was not much else to spend money on. And before mass production with plastics people could find work doing creative things like this.
Standardization is a result of technological advancement being abused to stifle skilled workers. Unique versions of products and even high quality versions of them aren't rare because of a lack of desire or ability to make them. It is because the automated manufacturing processes are all that matters when making things now. Any type of clothing that requires skilled stitching? Machine struggles with it so you'll never see it unless you are willing to pay the 1 company on earth that still employs skilled tailors 25,000 for it.
@@Outwardpd Automation and machines did not stiffle anything. Skilled workers still exist and they produce their goods to this day. What's more, those kinds of lighters exist everywhere, they cost around 50 bucks. Nobody is interested in them enough to buy them lmao.
@@OutwardpdMore people than ever before in human history can afford the shoes on their feet, because now it doesn’t take a cobbler a week to make one pair of shoes. A machine makes it in 10 minutes. I would rather clothe the poor than have a cool lighter.
Nowadays We get lighters in Plastic everyone has the Same ones! No Craftmanships and No Uniqueness that was what the Old Days used to be Everything is Unique and everyone had a Different Lighter! Nowadays You got a iPhone or Android, Team Android here! Also this is what i mean I had a Blackberry and it was to me the Most Unique Phone ever! Nowadays Touch Screens are Taking over and can't even Get a unique Phone without Compromises!
I used to have that 2nd one. Found it at a garage sale. Lost it years later on a night of bar/club crawling. May whoever found it enjoy that really nice gear.
Literally? As I bet most of those lighters were expensive at time? I got interested so I googled a bit, and find out that 1926 Ronson model lighter cost $ 5 at the time. Corrected with inflation that would be over $ 30 nowadays. Not exactly a steal, but as there is much cheaper ones readily available, I bet few companies would survive today by making just lighters? But gotta admit all of the ones on video looked way cooler than any modern ones I have seen.
I think the reason I like these old ones so much more than the new ones (the intricate ones) is because each lighter just exudes cute human engenuity. They created the lighter and then just kept expanding on it, each lighter feels like the specific inventors creativity and passion. It's just the charm of human made, hand crafted time and effort, for humans sake. Like each lighter was made with the buyer in mind. So much personality.

I dated a Italian man when in my younger days. I put a cigarette to smoke. And he pulled out his gold lighter . He the gentleman that he was. Went to give me the light. And the when he clicked open not only did it flame but it also had beautiful music. Even better we were out in the dark. I really injoyed that cigarette. He open it a few more time for me . We listen to the music while we talked. I never forget that.Talll slim handsome he sure was. Anyway . Just wanted to share.❤
.. Awww.. would love to hear more. What paths did you choose. Where is he now? (I dated an Italian for 3 years over 20 years ago... and still think of him. Our lives took different paths.. **Sigh** )
Thank you for sharing your beautiful story. Pardon me, if you don't mind me asking, how many years ago was this? I only ask because I'm fascinated about the lighter and want to know more. Thank you, once again.
@@Wildfox1177 a LOT less so now, compared to ten, twenty years ago, and MOST CERTAINLY less than in the 1930's-1950's, they'd have commercials EVERYWHERE. even in kid's cartoons for cigarettes. We've come a long way since then. (:
@@codaxthevulture4129 I can't say for certain, but I'd like to say they were both equally bad for different reasons. Probably just changes in ingredients that could very easily be equally as bad.
@@codaxthevulture4129 How could you possibly come to that conclusion? "Since 1950, the makeup of cigarettes and the composition of cigarette smoke have gradually changed. In the United States, the sales-weighted average "tar" and nicotine yields have declined from a high of 38 mg "tar" and 2.7 mg nicotine in 1954 to 12 mg and 0.95 mg in 1992, respectively." That was the very first study I found. Come on now. They were worse in every possible way.
I'm not a smoker, never have been but these old lighters were so hecking classy. Each ones a little work of art. We used to make things beautiful and attractive just because, now everything is static.
In fact, everything was done by hand, there were no large machines that produced in series. This made things more unique and detailed. Over time, machines took their place and everything became easier and cheaper to produce, handmade products became rarer and more expensive.
@@gustavofranciscoschierholt6095 Dude these aren't from the 1700's. They would've absolutely been made with major machine assistance ever since the industrial revolution.
@@Sublime_1Not everything by any means, you had to be of a certain class. Those lighters were expensive even in the time, basic ones would usually be similar to "trench lighters" essentially a reused metal casing, cotton, a wick and a flint wheel. They did their job fine, but weren't extravagant.
I had no idea there were so many unique examples of lighter tech like this. I guess the zippo is the closest thing to some of these in the modern age, and even that's not as interesting as these. Definitely more interesting than the mass produced plastic lighters of today, though.
Profit incentives ruin everything. We're rewarded more for producing the cheapest low quality things than we are if producing high quality creative ones.
@@Djanck000Yeah, because of people like me and you. I know for sure you wouldn’t go out and buy a brand new tv or lighter when the cheaper one can do the job for half the cost.
@@supergamergrill7734 Nah, you don't sh*t. "Brand new" is not the opposite of "cheaper" just for starters. There's brand new soulless stuff made by the thousands to be as cheap as possible. Plus, i used to smoke and used to have very nice lighters i used in different occasions. And i used to work (from 2011 to 2020) doing custom leather crafts. I 100% am the guy that would spend a little more to buy something handcrafted and durable. Sure, i'm not rich so there's a point where the cheapest thing IS the one i can buy, but being poor and being cheap are two separate issues.
I love old music like this, it gives me a sense of nostalgia and peace. And about the lighters, there so unique, I wish they still made beautiful lighters like that.
What i loved about the old days. Real care was put into them and it feels like each lighter has its own personality and story to tell. My favorites in your collection are the heart one the kickstart and perplex. Thank you for sharing your collection friend!
@@circleinforthecube5170 i think they mean the fact that things were built to last. Once companies realised they'd benefit from having our bought goods break after a certain time, it's just become the norm
Really - Fire is one of our simplest necessities in life. One of the four basic elements. So, it is truely fascinating seeing the variations from around the world from different periods of time. Here in the states where Zippo is the standard, it is hard to find other vintage lighters like these. "The 1001" was one of my favorites, here. Thank you for sharing your collection with us!
Old timey stuff gives me nostalgia, and I’m a Gen Z… I love going to thrift stores and finding vintage and antique furniture, tea sets and little trinkets. They built very unique and beautiful furniture back then too.

NOT just lighters. Old toasters, tvs, fans, fridges, and toys. I've got a collection of things from the 50s-70s and soooo much of it is built so well. Most of it works perfectly. My beer fridge is from the 60s, in my garage, and works great. Yes, it costs more to run, yes it's smaller, but dang of it isn't nice, and will outlive my new fridge in the house I'm sure. It's only had some wiring replaced
When everything was made in America:
Yes and it also last longer. They were very creative.

Great musician, my favorite has to be 'midnight the stars and you'
I've heard so many covers of this song. The Marcels also had a good one, and some animatronic band in the 80s did a cover of the cover and they are both great honestly! The song makes its way through the decades and is still a classic!
@@ReddFourBirdsI believe there's a cover of this song on this one dementia album. Very strange
@@dandiegidio7729 The Caretaker I believe, but that's moreso art.

Back when craftsmanship and creativity meant something
What did they mean? Lung cancer?
@@yoaiou what? You can use a lighter for a lot more than cigarettes lol.
And worked with passion
Craftsmanship and creativity still mean something, just not for lighters. Lighters are no longer a symbol for status in the common day to day, and smoking was, and still is, the leading reason to use a lighter. You didn't take fancy lighters camping, for example.
@@reylynn6641 you’re gonna sit there and tell me that things aren’t more cookie cutter than ever. We’re 3d printing houses now and you can drive through entire neighborhoods where each house is literally the same thing. Go look at that era architecture as well. Huge difference. Not just lighters
I love the craftsmanship of all the lighters 🔥💯
The amount of value in this short is insane
Yea man.. just googled the watch lighter by eterna on here.. one is going on eBay right now for around $3,000 😅
@nymetsman321 just because it's listed for $3k doesn't mean that's what they're going for/what they're worth. Looks like one's that have actually sold are going for $600-1300 depending on condition.
I mean in terms of time, like how many he shows
I never smoked a day in my life, but these old lighters always fascinated me.
Don't need to smoke to appreciate something cool🤷🏽♂️
fire has multiple uses
Ive been clean from cigarettes for a year now if i owned any of these i would have to pick up smoking again😂
Burning Memory in the background gives me goosebumps

That's right.
Heartaches by Al Bowlly.
What a beautiful collection of lighters 🎉
Older things always seem to be so much more ornate and unique. The way they thought to make things work back then was incredible, and stuff lasted forever
I think that might just be survivorship bias. Im sure there was cheap lighters too back in the day, that you just dont see anymore because they are in a landfill now.
@@Yipper64 no it’s not, things were usually higher quality back then. And there’s many examples. Like household appliances. They used to last forever and now it seems like they don’t really last as long when you buy them.
@@JakeyBro69it was also a super big investment to buy things back then because money was worth alot more and people didn't get paid as much a lighter like this would be more popular with the upper class lower class would still be using matches
@@Yipper64 Well, the cheap and common option was to buy matches. Until the turn of the century, people used fire strikers, pieces of steel that produced sparks when struck, to make fire. With the advent of matches, everyone lit their cigars with that instead. Lighters were only used in windy situations where a match wouldn't stay lit, so they became more common in the military. Having one just to light your cigarettes was already a statement of wealth, so most lighters reflected that in their style and design. Having a cheap lighter would be like buying a fake rolex - pretending to be wealthy. So, yes, cheap lighters existed, but there is a good reason why so many of them were fancy and long-lasting designs.
@@lukasbuzz Also true, but my point still stands
We need to bring this trend of amazing lighters back. I need it. I need it to survive.
Сейчас актуальнее газовые с сильным пламенем, чтобы удобней было поджигать бонг)
Those flames seem very strong. Makes me wonder what kind of fuel they used and how long it lasted. In fact, they might not really be for lighting cigarettes but survival (starting a fire for cooking), home utility (lighting gas lamps/cooking stoves), or in industrial settings where a pilot light needs to be lit (a locomotive)
Fun stuff to think about and those lighters sure are pretty.
Because those lighters were engineered and built by actual ingenious people. Modern lighters are mainly mass produced junk thousands of units rolling off chinese factory lines all the time
I don't even want to own one but I want you to be able to and for many to do the same. Mechanical beauties.
I would like them to come back, but without all the smoking
those lighters' designs are so well-thought and crafted, it's amazing!

I know right...antiques roadshow
A unique and beautiful collection. Thanks for sharing.
Back in the day, my mother collected souvenir matches from hotel bars and lounges. The match heads even came in different colors.
There was such a genuine sense of craftsmanship in older things.
convenience took over, ppl rather save time to make more money while also saving money with the more convenient options. why? cause we cant afford shit anymore lol
Now it’s built in planed obsoletion into everything.
It's not like that kind of craftsmanship disappeared but the standard grew higher. Since smoking isn't as normal as it was back in the day, lighters simply became more normal and well, most people wouldn't need such a lighter, because most people simply don't need one in their everyday life. But you can see it in a lot of watches, phones and other every day items.
We are losing the middleclass now! That is the reason why no one needs these - you are either too poor to afford something like this or too rich to care!
Correct its Even true to music, now a days music are like one day fame only
lighters but its just a burning memory
I know we are going through the future, but the way things were designed back then, especially from 20-70, it was amazing. Creativity was at its peak
Not really. Creativity is at an all-time high now. We are just looking for it in the wrong places. Back then, smoking was considered a high-class activity for the rich. Hence watchmakers were involved in the creation of such fancy lighters. The advent of plastics, cheap mass production, and the realization that smoking can give you cancer made it unprofitable for watchmakers to keep making lighters.
@@alexisrivera200xablethis is the comment I was looking for
@@alexisrivera200xable where do we look to find creativity at an "all time high" right now?
@bigol9223 Indie devs, but the difference is that back then, there was no big distinction to overshadow or bury good games under the spotlight hogging AAA titles from the big companies. In fact the problem nowadays is that we are seeing more games released than ever but the majority don't try anything new. Taking a look at the original playstation library there was so much genre definin games and wacky experimental stuff that it makes the current trend chasing stuff look a little pathetic.
@@alexisrivera200xable so the one example you give is still overshadowed by a time gone by. Sounds about right.

Far cooler than the average lighter.
A lot of old things were cool.
Like old guns, old lighters, old cars, so on and so forth.
The 1920 was just an all around extremely creative and fashionable period of time.
For those who had money! These are all luxury items just for the very rich of course.
@@Liusila Back then there was not much else to spend money on. And before mass production with plastics people could find work doing creative things like this.
Also extremely horrible for pretty much all minorities, and women 😂
I remember the 20s. I was only 10. Now I'm 110
And lots of cigarettes/cigars!
Standardization is good in many instances, but in other cases, it stifles creativity. Those are cool!
Standardization is a result of technological advancement being abused to stifle skilled workers. Unique versions of products and even high quality versions of them aren't rare because of a lack of desire or ability to make them. It is because the automated manufacturing processes are all that matters when making things now. Any type of clothing that requires skilled stitching? Machine struggles with it so you'll never see it unless you are willing to pay the 1 company on earth that still employs skilled tailors 25,000 for it.
half of these would start a fire in your pocket if you sat on them wrong
@@Outwardpd Automation and machines did not stiffle anything. Skilled workers still exist and they produce their goods to this day.
What's more, those kinds of lighters exist everywhere, they cost around 50 bucks. Nobody is interested in them enough to buy them lmao.
@@OutwardpdMore people than ever before in human history can afford the shoes on their feet, because now it doesn’t take a cobbler a week to make one pair of shoes. A machine makes it in 10 minutes. I would rather clothe the poor than have a cool lighter.
@@AnitaMeitner All of these are harder to start than any regular lighter. Also, who has a lighter in their back pockets?

Literally? As I bet most of those lighters were expensive at time? I got interested so I googled a bit, and find out that 1926 Ronson model lighter cost $ 5 at the time. Corrected with inflation that would be over $ 30 nowadays. Not exactly a steal, but as there is much cheaper ones readily available, I bet few companies would survive today by making just lighters? But gotta admit all of the ones on video looked way cooler than any modern ones I have seen.

@@nightvid3607my friend listened to the entire thing and legitimately went insane
lmaooo nice
The close up shots and music are so good
I think the reason I like these old ones so much more than the new ones (the intricate ones) is because each lighter just exudes cute human engenuity. They created the lighter and then just kept expanding on it, each lighter feels like the specific inventors creativity and passion. It's just the charm of human made, hand crafted time and effort, for humans sake. Like each lighter was made with the buyer in mind. So much personality.
Yeah it really feels like a make your own lighter contest in how they feel so different yet the exact same

Why... What is this sound?
@@Cheese-ts7py The creator The Caretaker made a 6 hour audio art piece called Everywhere at the End of Time that was an artistic rendition of the stages of dementia. The first song that played was a slowed pitched down instrumental version of the song that's playing "Heartache" by Al Bowlly" but it focuses on the "It's just a burning memory" part.
Edit: The reason for my reaction was because up until that point I hadn't heard the original song and then I just stumbled into it out in the wild and was like "oh..."

"Since 1950, the makeup of cigarettes and the composition of cigarette
smoke have gradually changed. In the United States, the sales-weighted

"tar" and 2.7 mg nicotine in 1954 to 12 mg and 0.95 mg in 1992,

I'm not a smoker, never have been but these old lighters were so hecking classy. Each ones a little work of art.
We used to make things beautiful and attractive just because, now everything is static.
In fact, everything was done by hand, there were no large machines that produced in series. This made things more unique and detailed. Over time, machines took their place and everything became easier and cheaper to produce, handmade products became rarer and more expensive.

Seeing the originality in stuff made in the 1880s through the 1950s is really incredible. They made things so well

I had no idea there were so many unique examples of lighter tech like this. I guess the zippo is the closest thing to some of these in the modern age, and even that's not as interesting as these. Definitely more interesting than the mass produced plastic lighters of today, though.

Profit incentives ruin everything.
We're rewarded more for producing the cheapest low quality things than we are if producing high quality creative ones.
You couldn’t find this quality now if you tried.
@@Djanck000Yeah, because of people like me and you. I know for sure you wouldn’t go out and buy a brand new tv or lighter when the cheaper one can do the job for half the cost.
@@supergamergrill7734 Nah, you don't sh*t.
"Brand new" is not the opposite of "cheaper" just for starters. There's brand new soulless stuff made by the thousands to be as cheap as possible.
Plus, i used to smoke and used to have very nice lighters i used in different occasions.
And i used to work (from 2011 to 2020) doing custom leather crafts. I 100% am the guy that would spend a little more to buy something handcrafted and durable. Sure, i'm not rich so there's a point where the cheapest thing IS the one i can buy, but being poor and being cheap are two separate issues.
I love old music like this, it gives me a sense of nostalgia and peace. And about the lighters, there so unique, I wish they still made beautiful lighters like that.
song name please

What i loved about the old days. Real care was put into them and it feels like each lighter has its own personality and story to tell. My favorites in your collection are the heart one the kickstart and perplex. Thank you for sharing your collection friend!
2000s technology was like this
@@circleinforthecube5170 i think they mean the fact that things were built to last. Once companies realised they'd benefit from having our bought goods break after a certain time, it's just become the norm

@@SuperScaryFriezaIts the same melody as that one famous dementia song off the dementia concept album
I never thought I would be seriously impressed by looking at a bunch of old lighters, but those are amazing as they they beautiful.
I love the kickstarter, it’s beautiful and interesting ❤
Really - Fire is one of our simplest necessities in life. One of the four basic elements. So, it is truely fascinating seeing the variations from around the world from different periods of time. Here in the states where Zippo is the standard, it is hard to find other vintage lighters like these. "The 1001" was one of my favorites, here. Thank you for sharing your collection with us!
The jet lighter and 1001 are just SO GODDAMN COOL!!
The 1001 was my favorite out of all of these
@@TheSilverstonedwolfwhere can you buy these things
@@Gamma_Labs I dunno. Somewhere.
@@TheSilverstonedwolf 1001 one is a nazi lighter (1938, it's a nazi Germany)
Everyone who says 1001 lighter is cool is a nazi
The vaping crew have been real quiet since this dropped.
Vaping and gaping rhyme for a reason.
#TheMoreYouKnow
The vaping ‘crew’? Nicotine is just a good drug. It reduces the risk of Parkinson’s and it treats my Tourette’s. Also, smokers don’t get canker sores
The have their own toys.
They're like well my vape with cotton candy flavoring is just as cool 😂
@@parisn6624Ah yes. Flavored air.
Old timey stuff gives me nostalgia, and I’m a Gen Z…
I love going to thrift stores and finding vintage and antique furniture, tea sets and little trinkets. They built very unique and beautiful furniture back then too.
Same bro I’m 18 but I love going to antique shops just to see things like this
me too
please google the definition of nostalgia.
@@IxXMadPenguinXxIsome things can definitely give feelings of nostalgia, without actually being nostalgic
same !!!!!
BEAUTIFUL COLLECTION
I never thought I would be watching a video of old lighters from the early-mid 1900s and actually be impressed
