Pink crane mosaic from Mosaic Tile Company

This crane tile design is so similar to several others in Bungalow Bill’s 1955 Indiana Mosaic Tile Company book — it must be part of this manufacturer’s repertoire. This actual installation is in Sacramento, and comes courtesy of flickr friend sylphbranching. (Click the photo to get to her complete photostream.) Thank you sb!

P.S. I wonder if they had a Crane sink, tub and toilet he he.

Take care of your pink bathrooms – or else. Thanks to Evaxebra for the photos, her flickr photostream is the best. Click either photo to transfer straight to spookyland. Oh, and notice the course of white field tiles right above the tub before the tiles launch into pink – nice touch, I like it!
