Lasting Constniction <br />J.M. Stewart starts with the right concept. Then <br />we build that concept into a carefully crafted <br />structure that will stand up to the challenges of <br />everyday life. Your Herald will withstand most <br />hurricane-force winds. It will repel blows that would <br />shatter ordinary signs. It guards against hail. And <br />fends against vandalism. <br />Strength is built into the original design. Dura­ <br />bility is a required part of every component and <br />material used m construction. <br />The Rices <br />J.M. Stewart signs are faced for years of <br />“unbroken" service. All facing materials (for the <br />illuminated sections) are formed from polycar ­ <br />bonate. Your sign will be built with either Tuffak® <br />supplied by Rohm & Haas — or Lexan® from <br />General Electric, in testing their polycarbonate <br />material, GE found Lexan® capable of withstanding <br />100 times the impact of acrylic (acrylic is the most <br />commonly used material for forming sign facings). <br />It’s very unlikely that you will ever see a Stewart <br />Church Sign with a shattered face. <br />Highly skilled workmen vacuum-form the poly ­ <br />carbonate into shape. Artists reproduce the art <br />work approved by your church (logos, type styles, <br />words, art and colors). Send us your sketches <br />—or we ’ll make professional suggestions. Either <br />way, we wait for your approval. And then, proceed <br />with the care of a craftsman; the eye of an <br />accomplished artist. We spare no effort. Afterall, <br />it’s your image. And It’s our reputation. <br />Paints coat the inside of the sign facing. So <br />finishes are protected from weather and other <br />hazards. It also allows the plastic to filter out harmful <br />ultraviolet rays — further protecting the integrity <br />of the colors. <br />The Cabinet <br />Heavy-gauge aluminum extrusions are heliarc- <br />welded at mitered corners. Strong aluminum angles <br />provide proper reinforcement at every turn. The <br />J.M. Stewart unitized cabinet is a masterpiece in <br />design and durability. It resists damage. Keeps its <br />shape. And never rusts! <br />The Point <br />Cabinets are painted with premium automotive <br />finishes — proven for their beauty and resilience <br />through years of use. <br />The Colors <br />Stewart artists and advisers stand ready to assist <br />you In making your choice of colors. It’s an <br />important decision. One that will help define your <br />church’s “curb appeal.’’ One that will make an <br />impact on your communications and your com ­ <br />munity. <br />We will provide color chips and make sugges­ <br />tions. When necessary, we will produce a color <br />rendering to help you in your decision-making <br />process. <br />The Illumination <br />All illumination is internal — generated from <br />Inside the sign, behind the faces. It’s protected <br />from the weather. And vandals. <br />High output instant start fluorescent lamps <br />provide light for proper illumination. The sign is <br />easy to see. Easy to read. Pleasant to the eye. The <br />light is toned to a subtle warmth. Its message is <br />"welcome." And In certain locations, the sign might <br />provide adequate light for dark walkways, steps <br />or entrances. <br />The fluorescents are very energy efficient. Long <br />lasting. <br />t IJ
