It's good old-fashioned American business sense to spend your dollars with firms that have an interest in your common welfare. The policy of the established mason contractor who patronizes manufacturers that support MCAA programs follows the line of sound business management and is a credit to the industry.

During the last half of 1976 the full page, four-color IMI ads have appeared in 14 architectural, business and consumer publications. Reproduction copies of the ads are available for use by promotion institutes and others interested in purchasing local advertising space. Also available to supplement such promotion are a variety of IMI radio commercials on tape as well as 30-second and 60-second, 16mm, color TV spots. Through use of these national-quality aids, local groups can save thousands of dollars in art, layout, typesetting and production costs.
