Description

In 1908, Mr. Pospeshil traded the theater for 1720 acres of land northeast of Verdigre. He erected a complete set of brick buildings on the property he named Oak View Ranch.
In 1919 he built a still grander house and barns across the creek on the northeast corner of his land. The house was made from 11,000 different kinds of bricks. Pospeshil had a standing offer that if anyone would find two bricks alike in his home, he would give them the house. That statement put him in Ripley's Believe It or Not in 1931.
He received a patent for the brick machine in 1923, the same year he and his wife celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary.
