  • Patent number: 4940068
    Abstract: A folder has separate front and back covers with imaginary fold lines between adjacent edges. The covers are apertured near their corners. An elastic tie band connects the front and back covers by interlacing sequentially through the apertures such that the folder opens by rotation of one cover relative to the other in either direction. The folding action causes the elastic tie band to surround inserted contents and hold them in place. The elastic tie band also facilitates removal of contents from the folder.
