Item History & Price
1. Antique/vintage toilet bowl, Douglas "leader" c. 1930's. excellent working condition.2. Includes original Douglas oak seat.3. American Standard Co. "Standard" wall hung tank. I believe this is the "modernus" style based on appearance (but I'm not an expert, so, correct me if I'm wrong)
This is an older rear-spud complete Douglas 'Lead...er' toilet from 1930's with an included american standard tank. It was working great in our home, but we decided to replace it with a modern low flush volume toilet to conserve water.
It's a bit dusty from the remodeling work, and some caulk a previous owner applied at the spud. It is in great shape otherwise. No major chips, breaks, etc. Normal aging. The previous owner of the home used a lot of putty, wax, and caulk to seal the spud up, which you can see in the photos -- that can be removed pretty easily, but I don't have the time.
The seat is nice oak wood, (maybe quartersawn?). As the pictures show, there is some patina / corrosion of of the brass hardware, and some wear at the dovetail joints in back.
The gaskets should be replaced. There are kits and gaskets to fix and restore these at online stores like "DEA Bathroom Machinery".
The bowl is in decent shape, mostly just dusty and dirty from remodeling.
Tank is in great shape. The lid is in tact and it fits.
The overall weight is approx. 90lbs. Local pickup only. Please fell free to ask any questions.
Rough-in is 12" (it was replaced with a modern 12" rough in toilet without any changes to plumbing or flanges). This rough-in is compatible with most bathrooms.
2" Spuds. Everything seen is included.
