ABSTRACT:
A book puller (10) has a main body (23) with generally square end portions (13, 14) and a center portion (12) having concavely curved outer edges (68). The center portion (12) has a reinforcing layer (24). The end portions (13, 14) are attached to the front and back covers of a book by pressure sensitive adhesive, with the junctures (19, 20) between the center portion (12) and the end portions (13, 14) positioned at the spine edges (21, 22) of the book. The center portion (12) loops around the spine (66) of the book and is spaced therefrom to form a handle (38). Pulling forces exerted on the handle (38) by inserting a finger behind it are distributed by the concave edges (68) to the end portions (13, 14). The pullers (10) may be manufactured by separating a roll of body forming material from its backing material, inserting a strip of reinforcing material therebetween, pulling the three layers through pressure rollers, and die cutting the pullers (10). An alternative method involves cutting body forming material and its backing material into strips, removing the center portion of each strip of backing material and replacing it with reinforcing material, and die cutting the strips.
