Not all the Zippo baked enamel process lighters are Town & Country models. Many collectors get confused with the Zippo "Town & Country" series.
The T&C series were primarily sporting and hunting motifs featuring: mallard, horse, pheasant, trout, geese, setter, lily pond, and sloop.
They utilized a baked enamel process that was slightly more expensive as colors were layered.
Collectors usually call other logo baked enamel lighters Town & Country models, but they are not. They are electro baked enamel models and should be correctly described. See catalog photos.
