Original Tanks and Bowls
are sold separately unless otherwise stated. Most tanks and bowls can be made to work together to make high or low tank toilet sets.
Many of the items pictured have special plumbing requirements. Our plumbing experts will be more than happy to help you select fixtures and matching fittings that
will work together to compliment your decor.
Unless otherwise stated, prices are for tanks or bowls ONLY. Additional hardware (Flush tubes, mounting brackets, etc) are extra. Please call for quote.
Please
keep in mind that our antique bowls are 50 to 100 years old. They will show some signs of wear and may have slight defects or repairs in the porcelain. All have been thoughly cleaned and sanitized and are guaranteed to flush properly with the correct tank.
Though most high-tank toilets will flush quite well on 1.6 gallons, they are not certified as low water consumption fixtures. Installations subject to inspection
may require a historical or special variance permit. Be sure to consult with your local building department before making a purchase.

1928 Crane “Okolona” w/ “Donovan” Flange
This bowl has a ton of
history behind it! In 1927, Crane Plumbing was indicted for anti-trust violations in New York Supreme Court. The prosecuting attorney was a gentleman named
William “Wild Bill” Donovan who would go on to later fame as the head of the OSS during WW2. Basically, Crane and the other major sanitaryware makers
were accused of “price-fixing”. The court did not find them guilty, but fighting the court battle did cost them quite a bit of money and time
spent. Irked by this, Crane decided to immortalize Wild Bill Donovan by naming their “new for 1928” toilet flange design after him. It was an
unusual design, and was a complete failure. It is, however, one of the best examples of revenge seen on a corporate level!

1915 Western Supply Co. “Irvin” Bowl
This bowl is the earliest example of
art deco influence in bowls that we’ve ever seen. The logo has wonderful detail, but unfortunately, there is very bad crazing in the bottom of the bowl and this
detracts from the value. The bowl does hold water fine, but the crazing is very visible (see pics). 2” spud, bowl is set up for a 14” rough-in on a 4”
waste pipe.

1951 Crane Criterion Elongated Close-coupled Toilet
A rare find! Supplied with
the original saddle seat, this toilet just screams modernism. This was Crane’s top-of-the-line for 1951, and was only found custom, high-end homes . 12”
rough, 3” waste, will fit most newer applications.. There is a crack, it’s been repaired and it’s not visible. (bottom of tank) This one will not
last!

available, both are in perfect condition. Both sit a “normal” 12” rough, 3” waste, so there’ll be no need for replumbing. Bright, modern
white will fit in with newer fixtures, and the classy Art-deco styling is perfect for the “Atomic-Era” house. Comes with all internal parts, wax ring, bolts and
caps. Sold each, 2 available, don’t wait!

1933 Standard “Moderno” Toilet Set
If Art Deco is your thing, this is the
toilet to have! Standard made this toilet for a fairly short period in the early 1930’s. It featured an extended shelf on the rear of the bowl that hid the
“spud” and also allowed the tank to sit just on top of the bowl, hiding the Flush ell. This was meant to duplicate the look of a close-coupled toilet, (very high
end for the ‘30”s) but still use “normal” (for 1933) parts. Excellent condition, must sit on a 14” rough-in with a 4” flange. We
haven’t seen a set like this in a long time, and it will not last!

Top-Spud Bowls
|
|
|
|
Top spud bowls require very specific rough in’s in order to function with available flush ell’s. All of the below bowls will HAVE to be set on the indicated finish dimensions and the tank’s outlet
centerline must match as well. Mostly found in upper-end homes, these toilets were normally sold with rear-inlet tanks. We recommend having the toilet in-hand before
roughing in the drain.
The below “Required dimensions” are from finished wall to centerline of drain, Size of drain pipe, and distance from finished wall to
centerline of outlet of tank. “AW” refers to antique white, “MW” refers to the brighter, Modern white.

A note about “Washout” vs. “Washdown” Toilet Bowls: Washout bowls do not always have an
integral “S” trap, instead the trap is installed in the floor to prevent sewer gases from entering the room. This makes them unsuitable for use on existing modern
plumbing. Washout toilets do not have a large standing water surface (a “pool” of water in them), so keeping them clean can be difficult and odors may be a problem.
Though many are still in use today, we at Bathroom Machineries generally don’t recommend that washout bowls be used in bathrooms that will receive more than infrequent use.
These are best used for historical and “museum quality” restorations or in the private bathrooms of “hard core” restoration enthusiasts!
Washdown toilet bowls
made from about 1890 on are basically the same as modern bowls in design and function. Washdown bowls can almost always be adapted to work with modern plumbing, though many require special rough-ins or that a high tank be used to achieve an adequate flush. As with any item you see on this site, we will be more than happy to answer any questions you may have about our selection of antique fixtures and will gladly guide you though selecting age-appropriate fixtures and accessories for your restoration project.
