This is an important thread that is located at the top of the page. Scroll down until you see "Period Zipper Finds." I thought this latest find by Will should be placed in this thread also.

Is there anyone who has a spare 50s chocolate bar nickel Talon slider and is willing to sell?

I'm looking for one to go on a modern #5 repro. Bought a bunch of 30s and 40s Talons but unfortunately they do not fit on the repro #5.

I have a brass one exactly like that from Photo2u. He's got a bunch of them. You may have to dye the tape to your color of choice.
Can the NOS pull work on the repro zip? I've never tried. If this works I am swapping all my repro talons out like what you're doing.

I just remembered Regius may have some too. In the silver color. Check with him too.
