Looks very fake, or was never used. Can you take a pic of the underneath?

Edit - just saw the gallery, it's a fake. The numbers on the base would have told me what year it was - but they are just stamped on pointless "1"s.
Still a nice piece of history though - some fake Zippos are worth nearly as much as real ones, because they are just as old.

Well, I dunno those "pointless 1s" are zippos way of dating early lighters. Only thing I'm seeing is that corresponds to a 1967 lighter, however that's listed as full size not a slim one like that. I'd shoot zippo an email see what they say. http://www.zippo.com/about/article.aspx?id=1582
