Down by the river to pull out some old embossed brick. 2 are defects. I got 5 different ones. Hope you like. The Shultz is already sold! Washburn is I think the most valuable one.

I recently found some more old hand made bricks, I love the squished in a mold look. I will post in the morning as well. I can't believe you were able to find 5 different ones that are so awesome looking !!

Thanks, the river is paved with them basically. Mostly all defects! I found these hand made bricks. Do not know the age but they are very cool looking so I grabbed 3. Here is a picture.

These ones are Rockmart bricks. Dug these up two weeks ago from a home around the 1900 to 1920 range.
Went down to a spot on the Hudson to get brick today. Found some okay ones. One has a hand print in it. All defects.

So many things to say about those pictures Robby. First thing: those Desert roses and Christmas catus plants are nice. Man look at all that area to scratch around and dig up. Lots of debri for sure! I would be there everyday. I wonder who's finger prints those are and what job he was doing , he or she is no matter what still around as long as those finger marks on the brick never get destroyed. Pretty cool.

No doubt. They are smaller than mine. I tried to fit my hand in the print. It doesn't. Made me think child labor?
I have 6 desert roses. This was the first one. The other 5 are thai hybrids. My plants said, "Thanks for noticing us".
