Great Vintage Early 1960's Volkswagen Advertising Lighter Made in Japan for Price Assoc. in Mass.

Great vintage early 1960's Volkswagen advertising lighter, made in Japan for Price Associates in Springfield, Massachusetts. The lighter features a brushed finish and a blue, enamel "VW" logo in the center. The underside of the lighter reads: "MADE IN JAPAN FOR PRICE ASSOCIATES SPRINGFIELD 3, MASS". This example is in unfired, near mint condition and was possibly owned by a member of the Volkswagen sales staff and came along with additional promotional items, see links below.
