Has their every been a REAL John Wayne Zippo made? I've seen imitations but never a genuine Zippo. If there is one where might I find one? Thanks.

Hello :rolleyes:

Have you tried the Zippo company online? :huh:

Monique ;)

Ya, I went on their website but they don't have all their products online. I emailed them too asking but haven't gotten a reply. Thanks for the help though.

Or do you mean the Zippos John Wayne used to give out as souvenirs to staff and co-workers of his films, beginning with The Green Berets? Those had "Stolen from John Wayne" inscribed and the title of the film written on.

I didn't know about those lighters, Itdo. I knew about the coffee mugs he gave out ( I got one from the movie McQ) but man would I love to get my hands on one of those lighters! dukefan1

Yes, I always thought it's just such a nice way to appreciate all the co-workers (which other star would do that?)
There are also zippo lighters from the Wild Goose which he gave to his guests, also inscribed "stolen from John Wayne".
Those precious items can come up at Ebay from time to time, but always for a pretty penny.

Nah, I'm looking for the a REAL Zippo that has his picture or whatever. I've seen those "stolen from John Wayne" Zippos but I'm looking for Zippo with his picture.

Itdo :rolleyes:

I think alot of us would be very proud to have one of those lighters :rolleyes:

But like you said they must cost a pretty penny :angry:
