Uday Saddam Husayn Personality Identification Playing Card Lighter

This item is a pocket-sized refillable butane lighter featuring the design of a 'Personality Identification Playing Card,' specifically the Ace of Hearts from the 2003 Iraq Most Wanted deck. The lighter is rectangular, framed in a dark reddish-brown plastic or metal housing. The front face displays a printed image of Uday Saddam Husayn, titled beneath with his name and former official titles: 'National Assembly Member', 'Olympic Chairman', and 'Saddam Fedayeen Chief'. The card design includes the red Ace of Hearts suit indicator in the upper-left and lower-right corners against a textured, light gray/pearlized background pattern. Physically, the item appears to be in used but preserved condition, showing minor surface scuffs and light wear on the frame edges. These novelty lighters became popular souvenirs following the 2003 invasion of Iraq, mimicking the actual decks of cards distributed to U.S. troops to help identify key members of the Ba'ath party. The craftsmanship is commercial-grade novelty quality, likely dating from the mid-2000s era.
