An album protector includes a removable cover having first and second spaced-apart corner pockets and an elongated U-channel interconnecting the corner pockets. The corner pockets are configured to receive and protect respective corners of an album, and the U-channel is configured to receive and protect an edge of the album. Each corner pocket is generally triangular and forms a right angle defined by a channel side and an album side, and a diagonal side opposite the right angle. The album side of each corner pocket extends perpendicular to the U-channel, and has a length which is less than 50 percent of a total length of the removable cover measured from the right angle of the first corner pocket to the right angle of the second corner pocket.

A machine for processing sheets for binding the sheets to form a book and a method of manufacturing is provided. The machine includes, a first receiver and a second receiver to receive to receive a main sheet (101) and an auxiliary sheet (103) respectively. The machine further includes a disposer to dispose an adhesive strip (105) to couple the main sheet (101) and the auxiliary sheet (103) and to form a gutter (107) between the main sheet (101) and the auxiliary sheet (103). The distance (g1, g2) between the main sheet 101 and the auxiliary sheet (103) is a gutter-size (g1,g2). The machine further provides an adjuster to adjust relative position of the main sheet (101) and the auxiliary sheet (103) and any one or both of the gutter-size (g1,g2) and width (x1, x2) of the auxiliary sheet (103) based on the position of the main sheet (100) in the book. The first receiver and the second receiver positions the auxiliary sheet (103) adjacent to a first edge of the main sheet (101) and the first edge is proximal to a biding edge of the book.
