I see they are the same brick as the Indy speedway. Last edited by yoteguts; 07/19/21 01:31 PM. I'm itchin' to see a coyote twitchin'. More trappin' and less yappin'. Member FTA & USSA.

If you have enough of those bricks for a walkway, you should be able to sell them for $3.00 to $6.00 each near most major cities. Even plain, older reclaimed bricks go for $5.00 to $7.00 per square foot. Yours are much nicer. Keith

You can go online right now and find pallets of used brick for under $500 for a pallet of five hundred. I've seen them as low as four hundred. I used them extensively in high-end homes until someone realized there might be an issue with introducing lead paint into someone's living areas. Many of the old buildings these brick came from (Baltimore, Philly, Chicago) were painted many times over the years. There might be some value attached to the idea Indy Speedway was paved with them. Probably not.

A friend of mine and fellow bricklayer was demolishing an old chimney in southern Maine and found a brick with the masons signature and date written in the brick. Maybe it was a common practice back in that time but I've never run across it before. He must have added his touch to the brick with a nail or something equally pointy before it was fired. Beautiful cursive signature and I think it dated to the mid 1800's if I remember right. It stood the test of time. He gave it to the homeowner. Great piece of history to keep with the house.

Probably not. You're market is very different then mine. Yuppies in the cities near me pay huge money for bricks like those.
