Abstract
This invention involves a system for minimizing the formation of glue drops on picks used to separate a sheet from the surface of a glue applicator drum from which a coating of adhesive is applied to the sheet. Spreader means are provided to wipe from the upstream surface of the drum at least a major portion of the adhesive that lies in the path of each pick.
