Item Description
2.25" tall stainless steel souvenir cigarette lighter for a GI with metamorphic hand engravings on each side along with front title "Memory of Japan". While "right side up" each side shows a lady smelling flowers, when the lighter is turned "upside down" and a finger is placed over the woman's head, the remaining image changes to overtly sexual. Missing a flint and with light wear but VF and first of its type we've seen.
