1930s Talon Zipper repair?

[Xopher]

I picked up a really stellar Woolrich coat from the mid 1930s I believe. It has one of the old triple marked talon zippers the side with the slider and stop box is still in perfect working order. The other side with the metal barrel is torn from the tape.

Does anyone know where I can get the male size of the zipper that will work with the good side with the slider and stop box on it? I’d like to keep that side original if I can.

Do modern repros mesh with original zippers? Or do so have to replace the whole zipper on both sides?

Thanks gang

Chris

I'm not sure you can mix modern and vintage teeth, I think this might be your best option:

@photo2u might know more about changing a single side, he likes zippers...
