The present invention relates to a method for producing a binding of the kind in which the signatures are joined together by stitching in the vicinity of the back. In accordance with the invention the stitching 3 stops short at a distance 6 from the head and tail of between eight and twelve millimetres and is moreover terminated at both ends by doubling the first and last stitches 4 with a short back stitch. Preferably the collected signatures 1 to be bound are inserted in a strip of cloth 10 and united by means of the stitching 3, the part 12 of the strip of cloth 10 that projects beyond the stitching 3 having paste applied to its outer surfaces which are pasted to the inside surfaces of the cover boards close to and beyond the hinges of the cover.
