1994 prototype brass Zippo of Santa with his flying reindeer pulling his sleigh into the sky.

Over the years, the Zippo lighter has become a popular gift at Christmas time and on other special occasions, and the Christmas spirit has been expressed in many different Santa Clause graphics and other holiday related themes.  The lighters on this page are mostly prototype designs that did not go into production.
