Scope note
Flexible pieces of cloth, paper, or other material joining two separate parts and allowing a swinging motion of one or both of the members along a single axis. Examples include a paper or muslin stub used to affix a print to its mat, and in bookbinding, pieces placed between the two halves of an endpaper where the body of the book is fixed to its covers. Distinguished from "joints (connections)", which are the flexing exterior junctions of the spine and covers of books.
