Brand: LAPCo
Company: Los Angeles Pressed Brick Company.
These bricks were found in our backyard in the ground only a few inches from the surface.
The top of this brick has a glazed finish.
I wonder if we will find anymore interesting things in our backyard from the past.
We found this interesting link about California bricks companies past to present.

Very interesting bit of backyard archaeology. I found this link in a quick Google search of LAPBCo, in which, incidentally, your post came up as the first hit.
Hiya,
We have a Victorian cottage in San Diego. We found bricks with "LAPBCo" stamped in them and did some googling and found your blog. Right nifty bit of information, thank you.
I found 180 LAPBCo bricks buried in the woods on my property. Some have white and some have a purple glaze on one side and one end. What are they worth ?
We lived in Mt Washington and during the 1989 earthquake our chimney fell down. These were the bricks we found. We ended up putting them in a cement walkway to the house.
My whole house is built with these brick that say LAPBCo yellowish color. How do i find there worth or any info on them .
I just found some beautiful roof tiles with the encryption LAPRESSEDBRICKCO super cool to know these are original stamped bricks.
