    Description

    1 PC True Vintage  19" TALON BRASS Zipper with the tear drop pull made in Meadville PA USA ~ OLIVE DRAB COLOR TAPE
    Zipper measures approx. 20.5" from tape edge to tape edge and 19" from zipper pull to zipper stop and has never been used.
    Over 50 years ago when my husband and I was first married, he worked at our local Talon Plant 5 facility in Meadville, Pa as a chain machine operator.  He held that position for almost 15 years before they moved chain machine down South to NC to save money on wages because they didn't have labor unions down there at that time.  This move turned out to be the demise of Talon as everything went downhill from there.
    If he were still alive today, he could tell you the process of making this zipper and exactly the style size this is   I alas, don't have his knowledge to share with you.  I wish I did.
