It is contained within its original black flip-top case with a white satin-style interior lid lining printed with zippo FOR Classics. The second lighter has a matte black finish and a full-colour graphic of an articulated lorry, a bald eagle, and the American flag below the yellow and blue text Born to be FREE. The name KINGSWAY is embossed at the base of the front panel, and a small copyright mark reading JBI© is located near the wheels of the truck. Both lighters have standard windproof chimney inserts with flint wheels and show soot residue from previous use.
