It wasn't so much the price of copper. The method of laying copper in sheets made the cost of installation high. Now this is all changed. Anaconda Copper Roofings are made in a form that cuts down high installation costs to a figure that is reasonable. The standardized forru permits manufacture on a large scale?another item in the low ered cost?and makes it possible for any roofer to lay a copper roof as easily as he lays any other roof. Copper roofings cost less than tile or .s!ate. They are the lightest of all roofing materials; therefore they do not demand an expensive construction to carry them. The first cost is of course higher than the cost of wood shingles; but wood deter tes in a few years, while copper is indestructible. With copper, th: pr<: cost is the last.
