Blaisdell Legacy: The Tale of the Blaisdell Family
The Blaisdell name has long been associated with industry, success and the American Dream. But before the most famous Blaisdell, George, invented the iconic windproof lighter, his father, along with seven brothers, had built an industrial empire the likes of which would come to exemplify turn-of-the-century American ingenuity.
Compiled by avid Zippo historians Ron Orris and Jack Gorton and brought to life by Taylor Tarahteeff, Blaisdell Legacy recounts the tale of the Blaisdell family’s trial, error and determination that would leave a mark not only on Bradford, PA, but the entire country.
Perfect for any history fan or Zippo collector, and comes signed by the authors.
