Holly Hotel, West Wall Salvage Brick, 1891
$75.00

We are offering a 130-year-old brick from the Holly Hotel fire (2022) with COA letter signed by George and Chrissy Kutlenios, Owners and proprietors since 1978.


On June 21, 2022, the Holly Hotel became collateral damage from a fire that began in an adjacent building. The "Arcade" was a complete loss.  Extraordinary and heroic efforts were evident as our firefighters saved the Historic Holly Hotel from being completely consumed by the fire. While the entire west wall of the Holly Hotel was destroyed, the remaining three sides of the buildig is standing and strong. 


We were able to salvage a few intact structural bricks from the wall as souvenirs. The rest became rubble as the wall came down. Each brick has a brass plaque and letter of authenticity, personally signed by George and Chrissy Kutlenios.  


8" x 3 3/4" x 2 1/2", it weighs over 4 1/2 pounds. In used vintage condition. "Vintage condition" means that the item is not brand-new, is weathered after 131 years and having survived three fires. Each brick is unique and will show signs of age, wear, use and history.


The Holly Hotel is listed on the National Register of Historic places and Battle Alley is a federal and state-recognized historic district. As such we are dedicated to the preservation of the historic architecture of the Holly Hotel and hope all remaining structures and those being re-built on Battle Alley remain true to their original design.
