They were made in St Joseph, MO back in the day at “the Mead building.” It’s now an apartment building after Mead moved production elsewhere (probably China).
I have 3 coworkers who worked on the Trapper Keeper line there in the ‘80s.  Attached File |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I had the Trapper Keeper but eventually "upgraded" to the Five Star zipper notebook thingy. https://i.etsystatic.com/12759292/r/il/3eb090/3453196591/il_794xN.3453196591_mqqh.jpg Same. Used one of those in high school instead of a backpack. |

I feel cheated that I didn't have that one. Mine had some weird, early-'90s abstract graphic with spheres and cones or something on it. |

I don't think I ever had one last the whole year. The plastic that held the flap always split and fell off. I do still have my USA made Jansport Backpack.
