The item has a rectangular shape with slightly rounded corners, typical of disposable promotional lighters widely distributed in the 80s and 90s. The inscription \"Marlboro\" is perfectly legible, accompanied by two red chevrons characteristic of the brand's design. The upper part, visible in the photo, features the ignition wheel and the metal cover, where the inscription \"CRICKET\" is engraved on the metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe surface of the lighter shows a slight homogeneous patina, indicating its previous use and age. The white of the body is slightly matte, with some visible signs of wear, mainly on the corners and around the logo, with no apparent chips or cracks on the displayed side. The wheel and the metal cover retain a functional appearance, with discreet oxidation typical of old lighters, but without excessive corrosion visible in this view.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis type of promotional lighter, sporting a simple and immediately recognizable graphic, perfectly illustrates the advertising aesthetic of past decades. The contrast between the white background, the black logo, and the touches of red enhances the readability of the brand, while evoking the visual world of Marlboro campaigns from the late 20th century.
