BIA Award of Merit #1
October 19th, 2009 by Crystal

Auction Napa Valley

Semi-hidden wire-o®  with ribbon book mark. 1200 books.  9 ½ x 10.  Thick book (1 ¼” thick) with double thick cover (22 pt x 2) and heavyweight index tabs (22 pt).  Flysheet plus 242 pps, plus 5 tabs and wrap cover.  Collate marry, punch and semi-hidden wire-o®.  Cover and index tabs overhang text pages. Single flysheet (Translucent).

The challenge on this project was in the punching and wire-o of this thick book and the heavy weight/heavy thickness of the paper stock. The process is:  punch the double-thick wrap cover (concern about ‘tearing’ through the double thick cover but we were able to minimize) manually for control.  Hand-collate and punch the fly sheet and 5 tabs. Collate and punch the 242 pps (6 pick ups). Marry into one book and wire-o.
