This line-drawn 1949 Zippo for Glessner Motor Inc advertises The Tucker '48 "Torpedo" automobile. Conceived by Preston Thomas Tucker (1903-1956), a car salesman with a flair for promotion, the Tucker '48 was lower, longer and faster than any other American car at the time and was advertised as "the car you have been waiting for." Only fifty-one Tuckers were produced before the Securities and Exchange Commission forced the Tucker Corporation's plant to shut down, putting an end to yet another independent automobile manufacturer.
