Going back 50 years, I used to use a large loose leaf book, the outer being two thick black boards, the two joined by a pair of thick straps. One outer had a key hole, the key being cranked, and operation of the key caused the straps to be drawn into the cover.Â* Pages had a special T shaped cut out, which was arranged around the straps, the key operated which tightened the straps, securing the book.Â* Unwinding the key released the straps, enabling new pages to be added or old ones replaced. What I can't remember is how the cut outs were formed in each sheet of paper.Â* Presumably something like a standard hole punch, but larger. My Google-fu is having a day off.Â* Any idea what that type of binder was called? Try a junk shop. -- |
