Call your local paving contractors and/or local city street department, and
see if any OLD streets are being reconstructed. In this town, whenever they
do a pre-1930 street, the bricks are considered ripout material, and hauled
away as fill. They are currently doing the 1905 or so street in front of my
1902 office, and several people have been picking bricks out of the
dirtpiles. Contractor doesn't seem to care. Probably hard to get enough for
a big project that way, but for a small patio or something, doable.

Also, Google for 'antique street pavers'. There are lotsa dealers, if you
need pallet loads for your project. As old as parts of Baltimore are, there
should be a decent supply around there, assuming the yuppies haven't driven
the price through the roof.

Try The Loading Dock.
Also try some brick venders like Harding Bros amd Maisel in Glen Burnie.
