Aerosol valve innovator linked to Nixon ally Abplanalp
Robert Abplanalp, inventor of the aerosol valve, built Precision Valve Corp. and owns Grand Cay Island in the Bahamas. Nixon sold most San Clemente property to him for 1.2 million dollars, keeping 5.9 acres. Abplanalp, 51, lives in Bronxville, NY, with his wife and two children, and maintains ties with Nixon and Rebozo. The article notes his rise from a debt-ridden shop to a valve giant, and his social, apolitical stance. It also mentions his Adirondack Fisheries operation and Horatio Alger Award.
