That Thatched 
Effect 
Of unending interest for single structures or for artistic 
building groups are “Creo-Dipt” Thatch Roofs with their 
long, irregular waves, rounded corners, smooth-flowing 
lines and indescribable charm of color. 
“Creo-Dipt” Thatch Roofs are made possible by the “Creo- 
Dipt” ingenious method of sawing the shingle butts in special 
thatch patterns. 
All “Creo-Dipt” Stained Shingles are of selected cedar, stained uni¬ 
formly and permanently in soft shades of gray, green, brown and red. 
Many variegated color effects like weathered straw for Thatch Roofs 
are obtained by using three shades of one color.
