Original British WWII Tommy Trench Art Farthing Lighter- Dated 1942 Category_Martini-Henry Accessories trade made safe by theOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is charming, an original WW2 piece of "Trench Art" constructed using two 1942 dated British FARTHING coins forming the reservoir of a Trench lighter. It needs only a fresh flint and lighter fluid to be fully operational. The hours of down time between actions left the soldiers with loads of time on their hands and Trench Art was the result. Now very collectible it is often still as useful as originally intended.
