Claim 1
Independent Claim
292 words
A method of making a double pop-up pamphelt, comprising: (a) passing a web of sheet material through a press and printing along the length of the web successive pop-up pamphlets each of which include two sets of adjacent pop-up panels and two cover page panels all of which are longitudinally aligned, each of the sets of pop-up panels being disposed adjacent a different longitudinal side of a cover page panel, (b) applying plural gule lines to the panels of each pamphlet of the web adjacent a transverse edge thereof for holding the pop-up panels to the cover page panels, and also for holding the cover page panels together along a common edge, (c) separating one of the cover panels from the web, (d) edge folding the outer of each set of pop-up panels over the other and along a longitudinal line between them, (e) folding the folded pop-up panels over the adjacent cover page panel along a longitudinal line between the adjacent cover panel and pop-up panels, (f) placing one of the cover page panels above and directly over the other cover page panel such that each of the folded sets of pop-up panels are covered and adhere to an adjacent panel aling the transverse line, (g) cutting the pop-up panels free of the cover page panels along the fold lines between the cover panels and the sets of pop-up panels so that when the two adjacent cover page panels are opened one set of pop-up panels extends upwardly and outwardly and the other set of pop-up panels extend downwardly and inwardly with respect to the joined cover page panels, and (h) cutting the web along the transverse edge of successive pop-up pamphlet section to provide a plurality of individual finished pamphlets.

A method of making a double pop-up pamphelt, comprising: (a) passing a web of sheet material through a press and printing along the length of the web successive pop-up pamphlets each of which include two sets of adjacent pop-up panels and two cover page panels all of which are longitudinally aligned, each of the sets of pop-up panels being disposed adjacent a different longitudinal side of a cover page panel, (b) applying plural gule lines to the panels of each pamphlet of the web adjacent a transverse edge thereof for holding the pop-up panels to the cover page panels, and also for holding the cover page panels together along a common edge, (c) separating one of the cover panels from the web, (d) edge folding the outer of each set of pop-up panels over the other and along a longitudinal line between them, (e) folding the folded pop-up panels over the adjacent cover page panel along a longitudinal line between the adjacent cover panel and pop-up panels, (f) placing one of the cover page panels above and directly over the other cover page panel such that each of the folded sets of pop-up panels are covered and adhere to an adjacent panel aling the transverse line, (g) cutting the pop-up panels free of the cover page panels along the fold lines between the cover panels and the sets of pop-up panels so that when the two adjacent cover page panels are opened one set of pop-up panels extends upwardly and outwardly and the other set of pop-up panels extend downwardly and inwardly with respect to the joined cover page panels, and (h) cutting the web along the transverse edge of successive pop-up pamphlet section to provide a plurality of individual finished pamphlets.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
101 words
The method of making a double pop-up pamplet as set forth in claim 1, including the steps of: (a) printing one set of pop-up panels along an edge of the web and adjacent a central cover page panel, and the other set of pop-up panels on the other side of the central cover page panel, (b) printing the other cover page panel adjacent the other side of the web, and (c) slitting the web longitudinally along a longitudinal side edge of the second set of pop-up panels to provide two independent webs, prior to edge folding the set of pop-up panels.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
108 words
The method of making a double pop-up pamphlet as set forth in claim 1, including the steps of: (a) applying the glue lines to the printed pamphlet sections which are at an angular inclination approximtely 45° with respect to the longitudinal direction of the web, and extend from close to the transverse edge line along the length which is aligned with and extends nearly the whole width of the pop-up panel, and (b) applying a binding glue line parallel and close to the transverse edge of the printed pop-up to provide adhesion along the entire width of the cover page panels from which the pop-up glue lines extend.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
100 words
A method of making a double pop-up panel as set forth in claim 3, including the steps of: (a) placing an additional longitudinally extending trim section between each set of pop-up panels and the adjacent cover page panel within which the longitudinal fold is made between the pop-up panels of each set and the cover page panel, such section extending outwardly beyond the panels along a side edge of the web after folding, and (b) cutting the pop-up panels free of the adjacent cover page panel by trimming the trim section from the side edge of the previously folded section.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
94 words
The method of making a double pop-up pamphlet as set forth in claim 4, including the steps of: (a) printing one set of pop-up panels along an edge of the web and adjacent the central cover page panel, and the other set of pop-up panels on the other side of the central pop-up panel and adjacent the other side of the web, and (b) slitting the web longitudinally along a longitudinal side edge of the second set of pop-up panels to provide two independent webs, prior to edge folding the set of pop-up panels.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
60 words
The method of making a double pop-up pamphlet as set forth in claim 3, including the step of: (a) moving one of the separated sections of the web into direct overhead alignment with the other corresponding section of the web such that the cover page panels are placed one above the other prior to joining the cover page panels together.

Dependent Claim
100 words
The method of making a double pop-up pamphlet as set forth in claim 6, including the steps of: (a) printing one set of pop-up panels along an edge of the web and adjacent a central cover page panel, and the other set of pop-up panels on the other side of the central pop-up panel, the other cover page panel being printed adjacent the other side of the web, and (b) slitting the web longitudinally along a longitudinal side edge of the second set of pop-up panels to provide two independent webs, prior to edge folding the set of pop-up panels.
