Description

Rare brass bar top gas lighter.
The gas supply would pass up through the bar and out of the tap on the end of the small barrel in the form of a flame from which cigars and cigarettes would be lit.
On the top of the barrel is a cat with arched back.
A lovely piece of social history which came out of the old 'Swan Inn' public house, Liversedge, West Yorkshire
