VERY COOL ITEM FOLKS!!!Rare, rare item folks! Bricks are of random appearance; each is significantly different from all the rest. There is lots of individual character. No two are the same! The one(s) pictured are not the actual one(s) you\'ll be getting, but they will be in the similar condition as pictured.Look at my response; people LOVE these! They make super, super gifts folks! USPS Priority Shipping is just $16 for the first, $10 for each additional. Depending upon which one(s) we choose to send you, the plaque might be centered, or it might be moved around to one side or the other depending upon if there is something cool on the brick we don\'t want to cover up!!!Once in a while we even run across some cool yellow ones too! Because of the size of the box used to ship, the certificate of authentication will arrive with a slight curve to it, just put it directly into a frame, or under a book overnight and it\'ll flatten right out. What a GREAT gift!!! Enjoy!!!
What a unique item, what a great cause.Soldiers Dale Beatty and John Gallina were injured in a Humvee in Iraq in 2004. Dale lost both legs, John suffered traumatic brain injuries. They could have chosen to respond any way to these disabling injuries, but they chose to not allow their injuries hold them back. They founded Purple Heart Homes, and in fact were pictured on the cover of TIME in 2011 under the caption \"The New Greatest Generation\". Dale unexpectedly passed away last year due to complications from his injury, but John and their team strongly carries on in his name. Both shied away from individual recognition, but are rightfully-so proud of their charity and what it has done for our veterans. The charity fixes up houses to help our veterans out - they build ramps, widen doorways, insulate, install new electric, hot water heaters, and much more - at NO COST to the veteran! It is all funded from donations. They also have a program where they refurbish entire homes and sell them to the veteran at 50% of the home\'s value. What a great program! 10% of your brick purchase automatically goes to Purple Heart Homes as we have set up this Buy-it-Now via with . We\'ve completed 8 projects locally so far!!!
Now, the history of the bricks... an addition was built in 1918 at the original Harley-Davidson Milwaukee, WI, plant. Around 2002 the wing was knocked down and put into storage at the Harley-Davidson Museum. In 2009 they were released to a liquidator as surplus, and I recently purchased them from him and are selling them to help Purple Heart Homes help our disabled veterans. Each comes with a letter of authenticity which tells the story and chain of control of the bricks. Each beautiful COA on heavy gloss paper is signed and has an individually numbered hologram attached. What a great gift folks....what a great cause...its a win-win, that\'s for sure.
