Many books used to (and some still do) come with a cardboard
sleeve like you describe. |
|
|
<Statler and Waldorf disclaimer/> |
|
|
That's a full cardboard sleeve, which is a pain to pull out and
then put back. Here it's just a top. (and thin back) |
|
|
Is there one per book (fiddly), or could you provide a wide one, as
a dust-awning for a whole shelf? |
|
|
In the latter case, the cover itself could be dusted off from time to
time by a sort of millizamboni. (A nanozamboni sounds better,
but you wouldn't be able to watch it work). |
|
|
<- passive/aggressive with links? Maybe it's down to the explanation being shoehorned. |
|
|
Although, that extra paper folding thing, around a book's cover, probably does need some flaps. |
|
|
Perhaps, [pash], it would help if you linked a drawing of what
it *does* look like, as well as what it *doesn't*. I'm still not
sure what you're describing. |
|
|
I imagine it's an open-book cover - like a dish-cover - for leaving something lying on the desk, so you can pile stuff up on top of it, and the cat doesn't leave personalized bookmarks. Bun proferred. |
