Compiler-binder for periodicals and the like

A compiler-binder for periodicals and the like comprising a rigid back spine and covers hinged thereto, the spine being provided on its inner surface with a pair of symmetrically disposed vertically spaced transversely extending opening means for receiving projections, clip means securable to the back of said periodicals and the like to be bound within the covers and having a pair of rearwardly protruding integral projections vertically spaced for reception within the pair of transverse opening means, and means provided on one of the opening means and the projections, for locking said periodicals against vertical movement when the latter are inserted in the opening means, whereby the spine facilitates the binding of periodicals simulating a rigidly bound book, wherein the transversely extending opening means comprises lines of successive keyhole-shaped apertures disposed near opposite ends of the spine and parallel to one another, the apertures receiving said projections through the larger portion of the keyhole-shaped aperture and locking the same within the smaller portion thereof.
