ABSTRACT:
Mechanically fastened appended tabs invisibly secure common edge-abutting wallboard panels to common wood or metal framing members. The fastener appendants are spaced apart tabs extending from the back of and exposed beyond the vertical edges of the wallboard panels so as to be conveniently screw fastened. When screw fastened to common wall framing members, the appended tabs secure the wallboard panels slightly off the framing member front surface to permit offset appendant tabs of abutting wallboard panels to slide between the fastened wallboard panels and the framing members and be engaged by the fastened wallboard panels in a tongue and groove relationship.
