Abstract
A device for applying a fastening tab to an open edge of a folder mailing brochure to hold the brochure in a folded state including a feed mechanism, a drive assembly, and an application mechanism. The feed mechanism removes fastening tabs from a supply of fastening tabs and positions the fastening tabs relative to the application mechanism. The drive assembly is coupled to the feed mechanism and drives the feed mechanism. The application mechanism includes a pair of rotatable cylinders biased against each other. The supply of fastening tabs passes over the cylinders and when the open end of a folding mailing brochure is inserted into a gap between the cylinders, the cylinders act to apply a fastening tab over the open edge of the mailing brochure to secure the mailing brochure in a folded state.
