How's This for Service?

Firms that really want to perform a service for their customers and their industry should take a leaf from the service page of Pemko Mfg. Co. of Emeryville, Ca., which really puts its money where its mouth is when it talks about service.

Twelve years ago it first compiled and published, at its own expem€, an 81/2" x Il" booklet entitled, Wlwt You Slwuld, Krww Abut Interior and, Erteriar Weatherstrip & Thresholds. Amazingly, the only place their name appeared in the entire booklet was in the copyright, and that was set in tiny, six point type.

A pure service tool, over 100,000 have been individually requested by dealers. builders and architects. A competitor even ordered it in quantities of 500. The booklet is still available from Pemko.
