National Zipper Day (April 30)
It’s National Zipper Day TODAY- April 30th! – On this date in 1851, Elias Howe received a patent for the “Automatic, Continuous Clothing Closure.”
Fun Fact – When the Rolling Stones’ Sticky Fingers album was released in 1971, it featured an Andy Warhol-designed jeans crotch with a functional zipper.
After the album’s initial release, subsequent printings featured only a photograph, due to the damage caused by the zipper to the vinyl disc, and the expense in producing the unusual cover.
