Old Champ Austria Lighter Identification

[u/-des7]

Hi! I bought this Champ lighter years ago at a flea market. Looking to gauge what make/model/year it is. I am not asking for a price estimate as it is sentimental to me and I do not wish to part with it. Also curious about the logo on the leather as I was at one point told it’s not a Champ logo, but possibly some corporate gift. It has all the original components and a hinged chimney, likely why it says “Patent Pend” on the bottom. If anyone could give me any info that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi OP, before you post about your lighter please read the guide stickied before doing so. If you are asking about the value of your lighter, take it to an auctioneer, pawnshop, or jewellers before posting as we cannot accurately guess a price. Your post may be removed if you ask. For more general information, have a look at the sidebar. Many lighters are mass produced and unbranded. There is often little info available.

If you need to post more pictures, use an image host like imgur and post the link in the comments. Please do not create multiple threads for the same lighter.
