Easiest and cheapest is to drill 1//2" holes (or whatever you prefer)
and use any 2 part epoxy to anchor a common dowel in the hole. No
danger of splitting or cracking bricks from expanding type fasteners.
The dowel is very well suited to common wood screws, but some hardwood
dowels should be pre drilled for old soft brick as a matter of
respect for the material. Used this technique for years for hand
railings, mounting electric service panels and boxes, hanging
decorative shutters and planters, house numbers, etc.
