Bricklayer's tools from
Mitchell's Building
Construction and
Drawing, 1906.
Johnson's Fareham rubbers, intended for carving were oversized, as can be
seen in the poster of Johnson of
c.
1880 (refer back to Fig. 121, p. 253), the
bricks being priced 20/- [£1.00] more per 1,000 than for the smaller size
rubbers.
Even the smaller sizes of rubbers, however, could be larger than the Royal
Institute of British Architects (R.I.B.A) standard face brick, as can be seen in
the sizes being offered by Lawrence for their TLB rubber range in 1898:
