Bic Maxi Lighter with Bird Graphic Wrap

This is a standard full-sized Bic 'Maxi' disposable pocket lighter, measuring approximately 3 inches in height. The item features a light blue plastic body encased in a decorative shrink-wrap graphic. The graphic showcases a photographic image of a bird (likely a hawk or bird of prey) perched on a branch with its wings partially spread against a blue sky background. The iconic 'Bic' logo is clearly visible in gold and white at the top of the wrap. Physically, the lighter comprises a classic steel hood (windguard) covering the spark wheel and wick area, a red plastic thumb trigger, and a nickel-plated fuel valve. Constructed from high-strength Delrin resin, the body is designed to withstand internal pressure. This specific unit appears to be in used but functional condition; there is visible wear including scratching on the metal hood and some minor scuffing on the graphic wrap near the base. These lighters are mass-produced contemporary items, manufactured in France or the USA, and are favored for their reliability and safety features like the child-resistant mechanism. The craftsmanship is industrial-grade, prioritizing utility and safety over artisanal detail.
