Bricks are of random appearance; each is significantly different from all the rest. There is lots of individual character. No two are the same! Shipping is $15, but I can get a total of 6 bricks in the same box for you, so I can ship bricks 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 in same box for you at no extra shipping cost! What a unique item, what a great cause. Dale Beatty and John Gallina were injured in a Humvee in Iraq in 2004. Dale lost both legs, John suffered tramatic 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\'s 2011 cover under the caption \"The New Greatest Generation\". They shy 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! 30% of your brick purchase goes to Purple Heart Homes.
Now, the bricks... an addition was built in 1918 to build bicycles in at the original Harley-Davidson Milwaukee, WI, plant. In 1922 that wing changed over to build motorcycles. 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 COA 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. What a great gift...the Holidays will soon be here; get yours now!!!
