Patented Feb. 1, 1921.
Application filed July 9, 1919. Serial No. 309,644.
To all whom it may concern:
lie it known that I, Gimmes ll WIL- Lriisrs, a citizen of the United tlatates, and a resident of East Cleveland, county of Guyahoga, and @tate of Ohio, have invented a new and useful improvement in Pamphlets and lrlethods of Making blame, of which the following is a specification, the principle of the invention being herein explained and the best mode in which I have contemplated applying that principle, so as to distinguish. it from other inventions.
The present invention, relating, as indicated, to a pamphlet and a method of malting same, is particularly directed to the improvement of that type of pamphlets, magazines and booklets, which, after being printed, are saddle-stitched as a means of binding the separate sheets together. in this type of magazine or pamphlet a series of superimposed sheets are first printed, after which a cover is placed upon one side of a pile of sheets and the latter are then stitched along a central transverse line. The sheets are then folded to bring the lowermost of the pile of sheets on the out-- side of the folded booklet, and the upper most of the pile of sheets into the center.
The saddle stitching of these sheets forms a combined means for holding them together, is the most inexpensive and convenient method of binding small pamphlets and magazines, and is in very general use.
The advantages of this stitching are not only the lower cost, but also the convenience of the finished book, as the booklet may be laid out flat at any desired page, and will. retain that position.
The uppermost sheet of the pile of sheets is in this way brought into the center of the magazine with the two upper halves of this sheet facing each other, which is not the case with any other sheet in the magazine as the halves of the other sheets are separated by the inside sheet, therefore, occupies a distinctive position in the book as the book naturally breaks at this point and will lie llatter when opened at this page than at any other. Furthermore, since the two facing pages at the center of the booklet are on the same sheet of paper and would be laid out perfectly flat, it is possible to print all over this inside sheet. For this reason. this inside sheet, or double spread as it is called, commands a very much higher price for intervening sheets. This 7 advertising purposes than do any other two pages of the book, except perhaps the front and back cover pages, which are of course not read together, and are usually distinguished not only by a different stock of paper but by their distinctive position in the book.
The present invention relates to a pam phlet or booklet of the type described, in which .there can be formed two inside spreads which will thus command a very much greater price for advertising purposes than will the same number of pages in the ordinary booklet, which has but a single inside spread. I secure this distinct commercial advantage by a peculiar construction of the magazine or booklet, and by a special way of folding the same, which will now be described. To the accomplishment of the foregoing and related ends, said invention, then, consists of the means hereinafter, fully described and particularly pointed out in the claims.
The annexed drawing and the following description set forth in detail certain mechanism embodying the invention, such disclosed means tonstituting, however, but one of various mechanical forms in which the principle of the invention may be used.
in said annexed drawing lFigure l is an edge view showing somewhat diagrammatically a magazine of my improved type as first bound, before the folding. operation; and Fig. 2 shows a similar view after the folding operation.
in llig. l l have shown a series of superimposed sheets 1, 2, 3 and d, which are saddle-stitched or bound by means of wire stitchings 5 along a central transverse line. Ordinarily a booklet bound in this manner is folded by bringing the two halves of each of the sheets, 1, 2, 3 and 4-, forward and toward each other, and thus making the sheet 1 serve as front and back covers for the book. This gives a single inside spread consisting of the sheet 4 having two facin pages 4t which are on the same sheet an which may therefore be printed together.
In order to secure two inside spreads or series of facing pages on the same sheets of paper, I bring the right-hand pages on the sheets i and 2 over against the left-hand pages of the sheets i and 2. This method of folding is shown in Fig. 2, and in this way two inside spreads are provided, one on the sheet a and the other on the sheet 1,
in which the two facing single sheet and may be printed together. This sheet 1 was'originally uppermost of the series of sheets when assembled for binding, as shown in Fig. 1. In this way two inside spreads are secured, giving these pages amuch' greater value for advertising purposes, while each spread retains the old advantage that the booklet will lie flat when opened to either of these two spreads.
In addition to the advantage of thus securing two spreads it is possible to use a distinctive paper stock for the sheets 2 and 3, each of which has one page as a cover page, the sheet 2 being the front cover and the sheet 3 the rear cover. This distinctive stock in the final booklet will also command a somewhat higher price by reason of the character of the pap-er, while the final appearance of the booklet will be in no way changed except that there will be a slight division noticeable at the binding. This is no disadvantage, however, and, in fact, the binding is somewhat improved in appearance because no stitching is now apparent from the outside.
Other modes of applying the principle of my invention may be employed instead of the one explained, change being made as regards the mechanism herein disclosed, provided the means stated by any of the followpages 1 are on a ing claims or the equivalent of such stated means be employed.
I therefore particularly point out and distinctly claim as my invention.
1. A booklet or the like, comprising a series of superimposed sheets of paper fastened together by stitching along a central transverse plane, and then folded to bring the two halves of the upper sheets together and the two halves of the lower sheets of paper together in the booklet.
2. A booklet or the like, comprising a, series of superimposed sheets of paper including two inner sheets of cover paper fastened together by stitching along a central transverse plane, and then folded to bring one page of each sheet. of cover paper on the outside of the booklet to serve as covers and the upper sheets together and the lower sheets of paper together in the booklet.
3. In a method of making a booklet or the like having two double page inner spreads, the steps which consist in stitching through series of superimposed sheets of paper along a central transverse plane to fasten them together, and then folding such fastened sheets to bring the previously upper sheets together and the lower sheets together in the booklet.
Signed by me, this 80 day of June, 1919.
CHARLES W. WILLIAMS.
