Anyone know about this Zippo?

[Ellis Wyatt]

I got this Zippo from my Grandfather and can not seem to find any information on it. I looked up the date code one time but have already forgotten what year it was made. Anyone know anything about this design?

Thanks,
JD

ETA: Looks like it is from 1968. Still can not find any information on this particular pattern though.

There is one being sold on eBay right now:

It is a 1968 5 barrel hinge model. Not sure what information you are looking for.

It proved popular enoug to make a color version.

Interesting. From the looks of that second color one it looks like the one I have may have started off life as colored. I had not been able to find any pictures of one matching before, thanks for the links ednemo.
