Lasting Construction <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 withsta, d 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 corrrnonent and <br />material used in construction. <br />The Faces <br />J.M. Stewart signs are faced for gears 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'a <br />supplied by Rohm & Haas — or LexanR from <br />General Electric. In testing their polycarbonate <br />material, GE found Lexanc capable of withstanding <br />100times the impact of acrylic (acrylic is the most <br />commonly used material for forming sign facings). <br />It's very Llr."'<ely that you will ever see a Stewart <br />Church 5ijn 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 Paint <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 />n <br />
