Very Scarce c. 1910s-20s New England Brick Company Advertising Mirror (3 1/2") carving of bus or helleboreI found this one in Cambridge MA, just a few miles from Devonshire St. in Boston, where the New England Brick Co, founded in 1900 as a consolidation of numerous brick manufacturing plants across New England and New York, had its offices. At its height, the company controlled over 30 brickyards in the Northeast, with NEBCO's "Harvard Bricks," advertised on this mirror, extensively used in the 1910s 1920s construction of Georgian Revival buildings
