    Description

    Copeland-Inglis shipped bricks across the Southeast. They were used in Chattanooga’s freight depot in the late 1800s. They also were used in Tampa, in the driveway of a 1891 building that was once a hotel, and is now a museum on the University of Tampa campus. I beleive this is one of many bricks that were used in Tampa. Copeland-Inglis Shale Brick Co was one of only 47 companies licensed to produce Wire-Cut Lug Brick. Measures: 9" x 3.5" x 3" amd weighs about 7-8 lbs
