1969 Zippo windproof lighter engraved "VIETNAM 68-69 BONG SON" with a quote about being important and being nice. The opposite face carries a line-drawn nude pinup. The case year is 1969; 68-69 is part of the engraving and is not a separate manufacture-year range. The base shows three vertical date marks left of the Zippo logo and two on the right. This engraved pinup Zippo is a focused piece for a Vietnam memorabilia display, with no claim that the decoration was applied during military service. The photographed removable insert is included. Its wheel, cam, short discolored wick, bottom felt and screw are visible. Preowned wear includes fine scratches, edge wear, lid pitting and darker residue near the hinge and on the insert. Fuel and lighting function have not been tested. Engraving age, original case/insert pairing and fuel/residue status remain unverified. Quote reads: "It Is Nice To be Important But It More Important To be Nice" (as engraved). Base marked BRADFORD, PA., ZIPPO. Metal case and insert; exact alloy unverified.
