Don’t take chances on Roofing, for
you can now have roofing insurance.
J-M Regal Roofing is absolutely guar
anteed against leaks due to defects in
the roofing.
And that guarantee is as good as a
government bond, for it’s signed by the
makers, a $3,000,000.00 company.
J-M Regal Roofing
is made entirely in the Regal people’s
own mills. They know the quality of
every square inch of it. That’s why
they can guarantee it. r
They make the wool felt—know that
it is the best quality, long-ilbml wool.
They refine and process their own
asphalt—get it direct from Lake Trini
dad. No man has yet found anything
else half as good for waterproofing.
So here is a roofing that _ is proof
against the broiling sun, against enow
and rain, freezing and thawing, the
oxygen in the air and the other things
which so soon ruin other wool felt roof
ings. J-M Regal Roofing is also highly
fire-resisting. . ,
Samples are free; also an interesting
book on roofing.
