The Gaylord Bros.' red rope binder provides an inexpensive magazine
binder, both for the current periodicals in use in the reading room and
those in circulation. The cover of the magazine may be pasted on the
outside of the binder, and after the current month the magazine may be
circulated just as a book, without damage for future binding. A good
quality of wrapping paper may be used in place of the red rope paper. It
is less expensive and wears fairly well.

the structure of a book may be found in the following:
