ABSTRACT:
A combination zipper pull, button fastener or pull, and bracelet fastener. The device basically comprises an elongated body having a zipper-grasping or bracelet-grasping clip (e.g., an alligator type clip having openable jaws) at one end and an elongated button-grasping hook at the other end of the body. The body is formed of plural, e.g., six, telescoping sections which can be extended with respect to one another from a compact, short length, state to an extended, long length, e.g., approximately twenty-inches, state. The clip is mounted on the free end of the innermost section of the extendable telescoping body and can be rotated to any position about the central longitudinal axis of the device. The clip is arranged to be operated to releasably grasp a portion of a zipper or a portion of a bracelet between its jaws. The tips of the jaws are covered with a removable protective covering, e.g., some soft plastic, rubber, etc., to protect the zipper or bracelet portion. The button hook is of a general loop shape to enable it to be extended through a button hole to grasp a button and then pull the button back through the button hole. The button hook has a maximum width, to facilitate its passage through the button hole, but is somewhat resilient to enable it to collapse, if necessary, to fit therethrough.
