The Ruberoid Co. plant at Mobile, Alabama

In July 1946, Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, printed The Ruberoid Co.'s announcement that its "new factory unit" at Mobile, Alabama, "was expected to be in operation by July 1st."1 The company said the new unit "will more than double the ouput of asbestos-cement building products at that point, and will include asbestos-cement shingles and sidings, Stonewall Board, and various asphalt products including shingles and roll roofing."1 The announcement describes plans; no row says when the new unit started.1

You don't need the product names or old records. No fee unless we recover compensation for your family.
