1880 Cook Brick Company of State Farm, Bridgewater, Mass with “C” in FROG

Description

1880 Cook Brick Company of Bridgewater, Mass.   Has Classic  “C”,   This brick was recovered at low tide along the Atlantic Ocean off Newport RI.     In the 20th Century, demolition debris was often deposited at the beach or into the ocean to be taken away by the waves.      Great IDEA for a gift for BRICK COLLECTORS.    The Cook Brick Brick Company was in business from the late 19th Century until early 20th century.    The clay deposits along the Massachusetts coastal plain from the receding Ice Age Glaciers, were superior for making bricks.    Steel was not in wide spread use in the late 19th century during the industrial revolution.    20 million bricks would be needed along with old growth fir timbers to build a 4 story textile mill for example.
This brick is rare and if you are a serious collector of antique brick, masonry, or tile, you want this brick in your collection.   I have only one in stock and only one for sale.  Do not delay, if you want it, buy today.
Often a company will have its name in one form or another such as block letters, a symbol, or script lettering.   This brick was used as advertising in a 440 brick palette .  Not all of the bricks in a palette were named.
Please examine the photo carefully as these are the bricks you will receive.   This brick will be carefully wrapped to prevent breakage during shipment.    It will be mailed using USPS FLAT RATE Medium Box.   A BRICKS FIT SAFELY in A USPS FLAT RATE MEDIUM BOX>  A great addition to any collection of TILES, BRICKS, and MASONRY.    Thank you for your interest and consideration.   For more information on the Aldridge Brothers Brick Company, please go to the Internet and look up A B C Brick Company of Dutchess Junction, NY  on the Hudson River and New England Brick Collecting Website.
