Abstract
A method of producing a book cover and the like from a blank, the book cover including at least one cover, a spine connected to the cover by at least one crease line, and a bonding agent for adhering pages and the like inserted in the book cover to the inside of the spine, comprising the steps of forming said bonding agent by depositing it as a liquid in a gutter means; cooling said liquid to semi-solid or solid state; aligning said blank to a predetermined position relative to the gutter means; and pressing the blank, the gutter means and the bonding agent in semi-solid state against each other by means of press means to attach the bonding agent to the inside of the spine by adhesion. An apparatus for carrying out the method comprises a substantially horizontal gutter means having two spaced, parallel side walls, a device for deposition of bonding agent in liquid form to said gutter means, drive means for relative displacement between the deposition device and the gutter means during deposition of the bonding agent, and press means for pressing the blank aligned above the gutter means, the gutter means and the bonding agent in semi-solid state against each other to attach the bonding agent to the inside of the spine.
