Its the right area.?? Can't help you directly but it might be worthwhile emailing NCMM at Caphouse with the same question ...... a few years ago I was there on business and given brief use of the then curator's office to make a few telephone calls, the place was just about full of old bricks, apparently it was the result of someone's life time collection of bricks, donated to the museum, it seemed odd to me that anyone would want to collect bricks at the time, but as I mellow I can now better appreciate the interest. Knowing just how meticulous the NCMM collators in recording everything and just how helpful they are I wouldn't be at surprised if they could provide an answer to identify your brick. |
