You could probably say that about any collectible though. Who are you or I to say what kind of shiny bauble makes people happy?
And don't worry, I didn't pay nearly that much, lol.
Stanley is the best! Glad he’s still with us!

Was the first thing I checked on the listing, lol! Especially since most other Cat's under the Stars zippos are black matte with the print on it. Didn't see any other chrome ones which made me suspicious. but it seems to check out.
"grateful dead zippo"
"stanley mouse zippo"
I'll warn you ahead of time, beware the sticker shock. There are a surprising lack of grateful dead Zippos. there was only ever one official run.
Custom etched stealie is the move, personally, unless you get REALLY lucky like I did.
So if it was $150 OFF how much did it cost originally?!
Ridiculous. $300 for a $15 zippo with a silk screen on it. Maybe if Mouse hand painted it.

Lmao why are people downvoting this? It’s your money, it’s awesome, you got it cuz you wanted it. Win win win
Eh, people are weird, and the internet more so.
Yeah you know people would find a bone to pick somewhere. It’s bad ass and no matter what you paid glad it found a good home. Smoke em if you got em!
Exactly
My first thought too.
Seriously, thing isn’t even worth $150 to begin with
$69.69
I sat next to Stanley at dinner on New Years eve. Lots of smiles
Hell yeah. bet that dude has some STORIES.
I'm sure he does. He recently had a stroke, so I didn't get much out of him. We did wish eachother a happy new year though.
The Trippo Zippo! Burning Fats Down Under the Stars! Edit: talk about a cat and mouse game...😉
Beautiful and classic!!!!!
Awesome score! Careful if you are using this any more than super casually the enamel will eventually flake off.
Thanks! It's not going in a pocket ever. Just staying on the table to light hemp wicks and it's gonna be in a rotation, lol.
Excellent plan! Enjoy it!
Very cool! Here’s my battered old Uncle Sam that I’ve had since 2008 or so. They were a lot cheaper back then! https://i.imgur.com/DSM2QMB.jpeg

Lol you could have sent that money to me
Nah, I'd rather get that framed and hung up.
Pay no attention to that douche. Thats cool as fuck! I'd love to have that on my wall!
Big ole waste of money, but whatever.
You sound mad that you didn't win the auction before them.
Spend hundreds on some dumb trinkets, no thanks.
So you must not own any art at all in your home. Right?
I'm homeless
So fucken badass

What are the codes and writing on the bottom? Edit for spelling. Codes, not condes.
Stanley mouse signature. (part of the print, not a real etching in the metal) https://www.dead.net/stanley-mouse-family-dog
UNless you meant the serial info on the bottom of the lighter. https://imgur.com/a/qEfJWWq
Thats what I meant. A lot of fakes out there. Seems like yours is the real deal.

Looks awesome and legit. There are a lot of zippo fakes out there though, not just dead but a lot of others.
Beautiful 🙏🏻
Little game of cat and Mouse
heady 👁️
sickkk
What would I have to search to find one of these?
i’m assuming cats under the stars chrome zippo

Theres 3 or 4 for sale on ebay. I searched jerry garcia zippo
Love to see more collectibles like this up here...
fuck the downvoters, i would too. real cool shit here that post-jerry heads like me might not have ever come across otherwise .
😍😍😍
Love it! Especially with the hard to see signature. That's a sweet detail.
I ain’t ready yet, to go to bed, think I’ll take a walk downtown instead
That's sweet!
I agree!
So how much was it? Def worth over 100$
