* DURABLE FINISH WITH
FIVE EXCITING COLORS
TO CHOOSE FROM
A state-of-the-art, high gloss epoxy/polymer com-
pound is coated and baked onto the steel to a thick,
porcelain-like texture. It provides a durable yet
flexible finish that will keep your loft looking new
for years. Choose from five rich, high-gloss color
finishes: Hi-Tec White, Radical Cherry Red,
Electric blue, Boss Black & Exactly Almond.
* SUPERIOR AND INCOMPARABLE
Can a wooden loft compare in any way to a
STURDI-BOY Portable LoftTN? Most pine lofts of
any kind, home-made or kit, in order to meet
minimal requirements at a typical college for
strength and safety, will likely cost $60.00 to
$100.00, be constructed with 140 to 180 pounds
of cumbersome timber, and be comprised o' 20
to 30 large boards and five to ten pounds of bolts.
After a lot of money, time and effort, this wooden
monstrosity then has the dubious presence of a
gigantic, old packing crate. A STURDI-BOY
Portable LoftTM will be back in your college room
next year for a lot of good reasons- and not
in the dumpster next spring, or sooner.

You can jam or cram within days of placing your Order-if you order now!

* EASY ASSEMBLY & PORTABLE
Assembles with ease in five minutes with a
standard screwdriver. STURDI-BOY Portable
Lofts "M come complete with everything needed
to adapt university-supplied mattress and
springs. The basic loft comes in two cartons
that weigh 34 and 56 pounds; light enough
to handle, and small enough to ship UPS or
transport inside most cars.
Why spend days lugging 4 X 4's and
inhaling sawdust when you can assemble
your STURDI-BOY in five minutes-then
spend the rest of move-in week trying to
make the girls think they need your help
putting up their STURDi-BOYS

Specially engineered legs and time-tested
safety design makes STURDI-BOY virtually
imp ossible to tip Over one ton of dead
weight in factory tests couldn't break
STURDI-BOY, and it won't burn or splinter.
* DESIGNED TO MEET UM SPECS
STURDI-BOY PORTABLE LOFTSTM are exactly
the free-standing, extremely sturdy design
demanded by UM Housing Office.
* SAFE, STURDY, & TUBULAR
Modern, graceful, tubular design has specially
engineered legs that minimize tipping and add
stability. Strong 16 gauge tubular steel is capable
of supporting many, many times the weight of the
intended individual and will not burn, cause
injury by splintering or fall apart. Telescoping
joints on frame are designed like those on industrial
scaffolding. Almost any university-supplied twin
mattress and bed springs can be facilitated atop
STURDI-BOY's solid steel bed support straps.
Some people prefer inexpensive 3/8" particle
board instead of springs. Heavy-duty locking cable-
ties secure bed springs to frame. Structural cross-
bars on ends of frame are evenly spaced to be used
as climbing rungs, making need for optional
ladder unnecessary for most people.

L-. ~.

Your STURDI-BOY room-within-a-room
typically provides a third more floor space
per roommate.

Though the vast majority of students buy only the basic STURDI-BOY Portable
LoftTM, a Side Rail and Pillow Guard are available for $12.95 each plus tax and
shipping, and Ladder for $26.95 plus tax and shipping. Side Rail makes a STURDI-
BOY even safer, Pillow Guard keeps pillow from falling to the floor, and the ladder
with closely spaced rungs makes the loft for some people easier to climb into. Pillow
Guard and Side Rail are less expensive to buy and ship if bought in pairs ($22.95
plus $11.50 shipping).
Pillow Guard can be
used on either end of
loft, as Side Rail can
be used anywhere on
either side; two pairs
of these accessories
then can be used to
surround mattress
with railings, but like
most bunk beds this is
not necessary. Acces-
sories may be added PILLOW GUARDS AND SIDE RAILS (ADJUSTABLE-
anytime later. POSITION ON EITHER SIDES OR ENDS OF BEDS)
