It has been proposed to overcomelthisuobjecl a;lgroundvviziils`` or' backgroundfi' tion by facing the shingles with granule'sjof two 20 ofjni'nelaflfgi'uls'i "f fa single -prevailingJ-color or more colors and texturing the granular-faced i surface in simulation of wood-graining' orjother or tone eiect, it has heretofore beendeenied necessary to face the coated surface initiallyvfi/th 25 it usuallyy forms a zone extendingfsfrom'fthe lower granules of a variety of colors., shades andblends. `lv'edgfef- 'p adsf-itbapoint bbutgbnevinch above This has occasioned manufacturing difilculti'es, heu f mezgroundwork has presented storage problems in *keeping the ifht'sfelatwelyqmex; various colored granules separate, an d"-" h a"`ji creased the cost of production, particularly since effect it has been necessary to use large divi/ antities of relativelyexpensive artificialir granules of different colors and shades.
I have made the surprising discovery variegated tone or shade effect may beat simply and inexpensively by initially'facingifthe sheet with a groundwork of coloredl granlesl of a single basic or predominant color; suc f d ural green or red granules, and thenornameiitin'gfm regularly spaced intervalsiover-cangreaqfgauethe surface in successive areas with a teittufie of '"iiing substantiallyito thatmgavtabggndgusugroups of narrow stripesof sranulesofhdes :1, nbghfnotineessariiyscbextensivemtmthe or colors different from that of the-groundwork. This produces the unexpected result'that@g1-the groundwork itself, in the severalareasl respective-il"- ly, appears to be of diierent shades of -theffbasic Y color. A covering composed of such shinglesfap- 'mie'. wip. hinglsizghqwn 1n Fi plied in overlapping courses presents 'the optical i' bf hfHWKinchesgwideeamhamgvanillusion of being formed 0f shinglesl of dierent f ously from about nfteen to nineteen strips of shades, thus giving a variegated tone effectwith 50? from I, to :Anch widths, f one c0101-, distribthe use of a plurality of shingles having a grounduted over its surface.

These dimensions and ing drawing in which: proportions are illustrative and subject to varia- Figure J.v represents a conventional section of 55 tion. However,'inthe covering as a. whole the ratio of the stripes to the total area of the groundwork should be such that the colorof the groundwork at the intervals between the stripes, in the area of each group, will illusorily appear to be of a shade different from its real color.
Where the groundwork is faced with granules of 4a single prevailing color, for example, natural green granules, the group of stripes I1 on the tab Il may all Abe of one color or shade different from the groundwork, for example, a darker green, the group I8 on tab I2 all of another different color or shade, for example grayish green or gray, and the group I9 on the tab I3 all of still a different color4 or shade, for example, a lighter green than the groundwork.
