Product

A complete line of Face Brick sold under the trade name “Greendale.” Suitable for every type of construction from the sim- plest bungalow to the most elaborate office building or public structure.

Characteristics
“Greendales” are made from clays of unusually high and uniform quality, mined on our own properties. “Green dales” are thoroughly burned, vitrified, and retain their original beauty. Age and weathering only serve to enhance their beauty. They can be obtained in an unlimited variety of color tones ranging through various shades of red, buff, brown and gray. “Greendale” brick are assorted in uni- form shades and can be blended in any percentage. The popularity of “Greendale” Brick is widely recognized be- cause of their distinctive texture and wonderful color harmony.

“Greendale” Rug Brick
The texture of the “Greendale” Rug when laid in a wall gives the appearance of the soft and alluring color tones of a Turkish or Persian rug.
Shades—No. 72 Light Ivory; No. 74 Cream; No. 76 Light Buff ;. No. 78 Medium Buff; No. 80 Dark Buff with pinkish cast; No. 86 Flashed Grayish Brown; No. 88 Light Brown, tan cast; No. 90 Medium Brown; No. 92 Dark Brown; No. 94 Gun Metal.
“Greendale” Semi-Smooth
This is a new and unusual texture and is the result of much study and experiment to meet the insistent demand. for a brick in the large cities which will resist the effects of smoke and dust and still produce a light wall effect. The texture is sufficiently rough so as not to give a wall the glaring effect of a smooth brick, but still removes the objection which many architects and owners feel toward the use of rough texture brick.

“Greendale” Red Rug Brick
Manufactured from selected shale and burned to a rich Burgundy Red. Manufactured for blending purposes only and not offered for sale as a straight line. “Greendale” Blends
Pontiac Pot-Pourri—A combination of gray, brown, gun metal and red Rugs; especially appropriate for certain types of churches, apartments and residences. Illustration on opposite page.
