a zipper cost about 32 cent

singhavinash2556 · Answer

The zipper, officially patented in 1893 as the "clasp locker," did not exist for most of the 1800s and did not become widely used until the 20th century. Therefore, detailing a specific cost for zippers in the 1800s is not feasible due to the lack of commercial availability and adoption during that period. ;
