Oversew

The three-page Oversew endsheet is reinforced with 1.25” cotton Cambric tape. After sewing, the pastedown section of the endsheet is folded back to reposition the hinge to the edge of the spine. The Cambric reinforcing tape comes standard with water activated adhesive that seals down the repositioned pastedown sheet.
