BOB CORBETT'S COLLECTION OF CHELTENHAM/DOGTOWN BRICKS

LAST UPDATED: July 3, 2002

Of the 199 brands thought to have been made by Dogtown brick factories I have 27 of them at present.

There are two authoritative lists of brick brands known. These are:
  1. Gurcke, Karl. BRICKS AND BRICKMAKING: A HANDBOOK FOR HISTORICAL ARCHAEOLOGY Moscow, Idaho: The University of Idaho Press, 1987.

  2. Graves, Jim. BRICK BRANDS OF THE UNITED STATES. Compiled by Jim Graves, September 5, 2000. Unpublished.

In the chart of known bricks and of my own collection I refer to these books as:

  1. GR = Graves' book.
  2. GU = Gurcke's book.
  3. ME = Not in either book, but in my collection. There are several charts to look at:
