It's a cool little detail, but does it serve a purpose? Something tells me it's so obvious that I'm going to slap my forehead when I find out.

Yes! Now my next job is to look up the definition of "grommet", lol.Like this? These are grommets for the early Talon Zippers.

Ok! This jacket is from around 1936 with the Fan style zipper pull. Beautiful work. You don't often see Wool jackets with the grommet zipper.

Grommet further secures the zipper (fabric zipper tape) sewn inside jacket.
