I'm not sure when NE wood discontinued their wooden based brick sheets, 
but I thought they were fairly decent looking.  There wasn't any wood 
grain due to a fairly heavy coat of lightly textured paint.  I think the 
downfall of the material was the bright white mortar lines.  At the time 
it sure beat the Walther's paper brick.
