The Most
Artistic Roof
is the one that complete-
ly harmonizes with the
design and finishing of
the house. For this rea-
son there is a steadily
increasing demand for Brantford Asphalt
Slates for the modern style of homes.
Brantford Asphalt. Slates have a surface
of crushed slate embedded into our asphalt
coating, thebase of the roofing being felt
saturated with asphalt. They are cut . the
size of shingles, and their beautiful soft
colors of reddish brown and dark green give
a roof a most artistic appearance. The
colors are the natural shades of the slate as
it comes out of the quarries. Brantford
Asphalt Slates are, therefore, unfatleable
—never require painting.
Bran
Asphalt Slat
are accurate in size and pliable, which c: t...as them
very easily handled and quickly laid, sa•,°' ,• r:i . a and
labor, and therefore costing less to lay.
Brantford Asphalt Slates snake an artistic, durable
and economical roof. Booklet describing them it .ailed
on request.
