HE Stucco is held intact by a Bishopric Board base. There, behind the gray-white walls, welded to them in fact, Bishopric Board grips the Stucco with a grip that is unseverable and takes no account of time.
In the beginning all Stucco homes are beautiful. But the homes which remain beautiful are built upon a highly efficient background which clamps the Stucco tight to the building, preventing sagging and cracking.
Bishopric Board is the background for Stucco. The weight of the average wall cannot possibly tear it loose from its fastenings as it does other backgrounds, because it can be nailed securely. Furthermore, the stresses are distributed over the entire wall area by the breaking-joint method of application.
Strong? It certainly is! It has more resistance to deformation in the plane of the wall than any other background.
The dovetailed heavy wood strips really and truly lock the Stucco, forming a perfect and inseparable union. Dampness does not affect this Board—it is scientifically preserved and protected against moisture, atmospheric change and disintegration. It cannot warp, shrink or swell and it is as thoroughly efficient in Florida as in Maine.
Bishopric Board is a modern, patented combination of materials and principles which have been in successful use by master builders for ages. Specify it for its dependability! Specify it for its economy—it saves materials, labor and time and enables you to provide desirable conveniences for clients.
Perfect insulation and sound deadening qualities are other advantages. Applied to interiors, it saves plaster, time and labor. It makes the home warm.
Specify Bishopric Sheathing also, the new Sheathing that big industrial Corporations are using. Saves 30 per cent over 7/8-inc.h wood Sheathing. Makes a solid wall, free of knot-holes and of great wind strength.
