Jun 13, 2017 at 19:15 comment added Dan Ramras When I was an undergrad at Cornell, Marshall Cohen used this theorem in a course. He called it the Klee Trick. I think it was part of his discussion of Poincare Duality for pseudomanifolds. My recollection is pretty vague, though. I suppose you might try emailing Marshall. (I don't know if he still checks his Cornell email, which is the only one I see on-line.) I can also look back at my notes from the course (feel free to remind me to do so!).
