Industry
Welcomes the New Masonry Leaders laud MCAA's pioneering effort in introducing the only national magazine devoted exclusively to the entire Masonry Industry.
Structural Clay Products Institute
The beginning of a new publication is always an exciting occasion, great in the anticipation of good things to come. We in the structural clay products industry are particularly happy to see the birth of MASONRY since it is another step forward by one of our fellow members of the masonry industry team, The Mason Contractors Association of America.
We know that MASONRY will be a significant source of news and information, not only to the MCAA, but to the brick maker and the bricklayer as well.
Expanded, Shale Clay & Slate Institute
The Mason Contractors Association of America deserves congratulations for the forthcoming improvement in MASONRY. With your change in format to a monthly magazine, it is apparent that your service to MCAA members and interested architects and contractors will be better than ever. The Expanded Shale Clay & Slate Institute and its members join in wishing you continued success.
Bricklayers, Mason & Plasterers' International Union Of America
Our compliments to the Mason Contractors Association of America for their ambitious and praiseworthy decision to publish a new building magazine devoted to masonry. The story of masonry is as old as Babylon and as new as Chandigarh. There is an almost unlimited amount of editorial material available on products, services, wall costs, material uses, and design which will benefit the reader, whether he is an architect, engineer, contractor, or craftsman. We offer our best to the publishers of MASONRY and wish them every success in this new venture.
Facing Tile Institute
Working as closely as we do with nation's mason contractors, we are keenly interested in the prospect of a new publication which, by its very name, promises to be an important publication on the construction scene. From all of the members of the Facing Tile Institute we send our congratulations to the Mason Contractors Association of America and our good wishes for the success of MASONRY.
National Concrete Masonry Association
It was with considerable interest and enthusiasm that I learned of your Association's plans to initiate your new publication entitled, MASONRY.
With the rapid growth experienced by the masonry industry during the past several years, it has been increasingly apparent that a comprehensive news source was urgently needed to bring about greater cohesion and understanding of the efforts of each group concerned. In addition to the important communication and educational benefits to be derived, we needed an effective publication which would serve as our spokesman outside the industry. I feel confident that MASONRY will fulfill these requirements in every respect. Speaking for the National Concrete Masonry Association, and in my own behalf, I would like to extend to you our heartiest congratulations on this new venture and sincere best wishes for all success.
