' FURNISHED IN INTEGRAL COLORS OR MILL-PAINTED The outstanding beauty of Acoustone lies in its pleasing texture, relieved of monotony by high and low light effects reminiscent of Travertine. * It is made in varying shapes, sizes and thicknesses which may be laid out in strik ing tile designs or made with flush joints to create an all-over pattern without percepti ble markings. The flush joint type is enjoy ing increasing popularity because so many architects and decorators feel that tile pat * terns are more suitable to floors while plain all-over effects, such as the flush joint Acoustone, are preferable for walls and ceilings. The natural, undecorated Acous tone has a distinguished white tone with a light reflectivity of 7055. Lighter mill- painted shades are furnished with a light reflectivity of 8335. ;- A wide selection of various colors are available. If preferred, Acoustone can be furnished integrally colored or mill-painted; or it can be painted or stenciled on the job. It may be easily applied over any solid backing. .
