Meyer Lansky's Personal Vintage Maruman Halley Cigarette Lighter (Letter of Provenance)

Meyer Lansky's Personal Vintage Maruman Halley Cigarette Lighter. Please note that the lighter is non-functioning.

Meyer Lansky known as the "Mob's Accountant", was a major organized crime figure and member of the Jewish Mafia who, along with his associate Charles "Lucky" Luciano, was instrumental in the development of the "National Crime Syndicate" in the United States. Despite nearly fifty years as a member-participant in organized crime, Lansky was never found guilty of anything more serious than illegal gambling. He has a legacy of being one of the most successful (in terms of finance) gangsters in American history.

Includes a notarized Letter of Provenance from a family member of Meyer Lansky for authenticity purposes.
