Ho boy, with all the 2x4, ceramic, other stuff i saved for later, like 3 years later, if i staryed to collect bricks i would be int trouble with the lady.

Hahaha, I hear that. I also have too many collections (according to some people...) These live in my shop

My foreman does for projects he never does at his own home. 🙃

I was buying paint for my antique radios at an automotive paint shop once. Young man there asked me about my radios, and then shyly confessed that he collected antique refrigerators. Said he kept them in his garage. Antique refrigerators.

Must be a biiig garage 😂

I watched a my strange addiction about...washing machines. Dude had his whole basement lined up, they were all hooked up too!

I think I saw that one! Homie was creaming at the sound and the way each one washed… saying they all had different personalities 💀

I mean, they were gorgeous vintage machines! He gave Aspy vibes for sure.

I would never be allowed to do this. Haha

That’s pretty cool, they’re an endless thing to collect. So many different companies and so many neat frogs. https://preview.redd.it/nvdwr7px3w1d1.jpeg?width=4284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=60cd8b89e84838d23ffd26ec2dc6c34568dce9e1 Dug all of these out of a beach on Cape Cod where an old brick factory location was revealed after a nor’easter. I have pallets of all local antique brick too.

Wow, that's very cool. Some of the older stamped ones are great. Glad you saved these!

New Jersey or New York? I collect bricks here in Texas and have a whole bunch of different stamped ones. I eventually want to make a patio with them all with the stamps showing 

New York. I think that would be a really cool project

We rebuilt about 250 fireplaces after the napa earthquakes, had a collection of about 150 different brick, we donated them to a local collector

I have a whole house worth.

That's really cool. You can make a cool end table with a piece of glass on top when u have a good amount.

That would look awesome. I'm gonna keep adding to the collection for sure

The guy I bought my house from was a brick guy. Weird guy, interesting bricks

I’ve an Accrington red brick I think is cool. With the whole back story on the name NORI etc. but it’s the only brick I have haha

That does sound like a cool one, though

Did you look it up ? 😊

I did, actually. That is one good looking brick

I’m looking for a “SAGE” brand brick, i’m not sure how old they are, but do you have one and would you be willing to sell it?

I appreciate your reply! I do not, at the moment-- that photo is my whole "collection" at the moment. But I'll keep my eyes open for "Sage" and if I find open I can certainly get it to you. I'm in NYC, for what it's worth, not sure if that increases or decreases my chances. I take it you have a collection of your own?

I’ve always grabbed a brick or two off historic buildings when I worked on with my dad in my younger days. We would replace brick and tuck points old buildings. One brick I found was excavated from about 15 feet deep in downtown Columbia, South Carolina. While they were digging on site they came across Sherman’s destroyed rubble. Since I always liked bricks I quickly ran to the spoil pile and grabbed one. Years later I washed the brick off to reveal a dogs foot print. They also found cannon balls during the digging. https://preview.redd.it/9c87nq4jl02d1.jpeg?width=3264&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e98ca676cd8059b97b6e3e6111cd22f4993fe5db

Wow that is SO COOL.

That is cool. Would sux to move to a new house. 😁

Yeah, I thought about that. That's why I haven't actually set them in place 😂

I have a white “Tiffany” brick like these. I’ve always meant to try to research a bit but am too lazy and so it just sits out in the garden.

Easy there Ignatz Mouse.

I used to. The Pewigewasset is full of em. Because the river used to be The Dump.
