New old stock, vintage house number / address tile. This tile has the number “2” in black ink, glazed over on the front. It is made of high quality industrial porcelain and is well-suited for outdoor use.
Dimensions are 3 1/2” (8.8 cm) by 2 1/4” (5.7 cm), and just under 3/8” (9 mm) thick.
Each tile is marked on its back side:
CURTIS DEVELOPMENT & MFG CO
MILWAUKEE 10. WIS.
MADE IN U.S.A.
I have several of these and so they will be available in multiples. Some tiles have minor factory defects such as glazed-over chips, warping, bubbles in the glaze, missing glaze spots, ink runs, or lightened spots in the black ink. This sort of “character” is commensurate with the age and hand-finished production these tiles saw.
These are in good condition overall, but some have very minor damage. For instance, some may have a small scratch or two, or a very tiny chip on the back side or on the under edge of a corner. No damage will significantly affect the front facing side of the tile and I will discuss any more serious condition issues with you before mailing your item out.
