Incomparable
Beauty. Charm
Durability. . .
NEVIR, before the introduction of Pabco Thatcb
Shingles, was it possible to obtain a modern,
protective shinple roof of such beauty, coin
and charm .'. . ac a low cost. ((Thatch effects, graceful
lines and harmonious colors... are added to the famous
Pabco firc-retardancc and durability., .in these beauti
ful ttbco-Tfiatch Shingles, ((but more important than
beauty is the service and satisfaction that these slun
fkt give. Not only is each shingle woven together at
the bottom and sides with a patented thatch, but in
addition every shingle is made an integral rigid part of
the roof. It is the only shingle made which is nailed at
the top, center and bottom... making it impossible for
the shingle to ever (lap in the wind or permit the rain
to penetrate. The shingles arc ingeniously arranged so
that not a single nail head is exposed. .
Attractive Time 'Payment 'Piatt
No matter what price you wish to pav for a shingled
roof, the Pabco thatcb Shingle is within your reach.
Its cost can be made to fit your purse by a variance in
the manner of laying. A flexible deferred p
l payment plan
make payments a matter of your convenience. Only
Pabco dealers and authorized application agents can
supply these superior patented shingles.
Tree'Rof Inspection Service
A Ribco Roof expert will gladly inspect your roof and tell
you about its actual condition, write our nearest oflice.
