Description
Black and white 9 1/2″ x 13 1/2″ ad for their Whirlwind lighters. There are drawings of them being used by a man and a woman on what seem to be windy days and the headline brags that “Blow by blow, the Ronson Whirlwind Wins!”. There is a picture of one of these with the windshield in the up position to protect the flame on a windy day and a picture of one with the windshield down so it can be used normally. Another picture shows several of the different styles available from Ronson.
