In an ordinary industrial building off a busy Orange County street, a Seussian contraption, nearly 100 feet long, clattered to life.
The room filled with the hum and squeaks of belts and machinery.
Like passengers on a dark amusement ride, bundles of colorful magazine pages, printed a week earlier, began a wild, circuitous journey, through tunnels and up ramps, that lasted a few minutes.
The long edge of each new 130-page sheaf was dipped into a pool of melting glue, then dropped into a U-shaped cover.
After drying during a series of slow corkscrews, the new magazine’s edges were chopped smooth by guillotines and emerged through an opening.
