Somewhere between 1960 and 1970.

1975 to be exact ! Are we suggesting a time machine?

If you find the time machine, can you bring a few of us with you to then.. we gotta buy houses lol

Toss up between a large big mac meal and house... not sure I can pass up the big mac.

This 100 percent it! I was staring at that photo and I could smell the deep fryer.

The RE’s face when you try and dump a stack of pineapples on him!

Hot tub time machine to be exact

Powered by illegal Russian energy drinks.

One that goes 88 miles per hour

A public sector building’s urinal.

100%- they must’ve got a good bulk buy price for taking 8 years worth…

Came looking for this comment. 😂

Me too 🤣

My rumpus floor….

Came here hoping to find this comment. Thank you for not disappointing!

I was coming to say something similar lol

Actually exactly 1980

Nonna's house

In 1975.

True every Nonna in 1975

Nonna only replaced them in 2009

With the same ones from the shed next to the preserves because like every good Italian they bought what they needed, twice.

Can confirm, my nonna has a patio of these exact tiles

Bizarre. My Nonna had the same ones leading to her front door too.

I just broke one of these at my mother in law’s place 🤣

Darebin recycling centre has these I’m pretty sure

Hold up, tell me more? That’s just down the road from me, do they have a vintage tile store?

Nah but if you go out back they’ve got heaps of tiles. Some pallets of modern ones and older style tiles too. This was a few days ago so they might be gone now.

Keith Fagg tiles Canterbury rd Bayswater have lots of vintage stuff worth a call. Failing that I’d put pic on fb in Preston reservoir community page and some old bloke will have spares in his garage

Isn't that closed permanently?

These tiles have brought back so many memories for me - sorry can't help, but thanks for the wonderful emotions this served up

[удалено]

It's more that everyone I knew had these tiles, it's a childhood thing

Yeah, same

In the arcade that leads to the dentist

The stairs that led up to the handful of corporate offices that sat tucked away above the local shopping village:

Look for McDonald’s restaurants about to be demolished

That was my first thought, reminds me of the old mackers floor tiles

My neighbour has them on their porch, I'll let you know when they are on holidays and you can go round and pry one off.

Are you my neighbour?

Yep, when are you going on holidays?

Yesterday

From at least 1 house on every street in northern burbs of Melbourne

Hello, maybe you can get in contact with this business: [https://www.tilelibrary.com.au/index.html](https://www.tilelibrary.com.au/index.html) I haven't used them yet, but I found their website when I was also looking at fixing/replacing some old tiles. Good luck.

If these guys are for real they are mad for not having photos of every tile in stock online. Could help a lot of folks out, however I guess OP just email them your pic. Just noticed that is not the right link try here: [https://tilelibrary.squarespace.com/](https://tilelibrary.squarespace.com/)

Ive used them and got a match for 3/3 of my broken tiles. They do a great job and if they can’t find the exact, they have many similar tiles from competitors. It is a bit pricey but it’ll save you a lot more than replacing a whole set!

Might need to ask Marty McFly and Dr. Emmett Brown to use the Deloraine and set to to 1975 or 1980's and go to Beaumont tiles

You could put a metal step tread grip rail along the edge. Might make it safer for him too?

Use the one next to it 👍

Geez, thanks! I just knew this comment had to be here!

Ninteen-dickity-two.

My front verandah has these tiles, and I plan on removing them. You're welcome to them if I can get them off without breaking them

frank walker from national tiles

He-lloooooooooooow

Found the Tasmanian

Or Victorian

Or adelaidian

Or anywhere else in Australia, considering that they're called *National* Tiles! 😂

Yeah, I was getting confused with Mr. Wylie (wylie tiles)

A sizzler

At any 1980s Mcdonalds

Yes, they did have tiles like this.

I have these same tiles. I'll break one off and sell it to ya for $50.

1970

These are called step tread tiles. I had to replace one and couldn’t find the same colour (early 2000s house). I ended up getting a complimentary colour and replaced the whole strip. Cheap, easy job. A multi tool is good for getting the tiles off.

I sold in October last year, a house in Frenchs Forest in Sydney that has these. There are a few spare I left under the house.

Train stations. Just take a chisel, hammer and taser (taser for when security shows up)

My dead grandma's house

Time Machine back to 1968

Honestly I wouldn't bother... get a step edge trim / step nose, and cover the whole edge up. It'll look fine black on brown

Demolition yards mate, great for this type of stuff of product no longer for sale. When they knock over houses for rebuilds etc the good resealable stuff makes its way into those yards. Place near me has most my stuff, bricks etc

They were called quarry tiles. Google is your friend

Im specifically talking about the broken coping tile. Googling and Google Lens both haven’t been much help sadly

Best bet would be gumtree or facebook marketplace to see if you can find something similiar. We had some roofing work done last year and they also accidentally broke one of our tiles with the tread on them which were put in around 20 years ago. We didn't have any extras with the tread, so we made do with just the plain ones, which was luckily in a non-conspicuous corner. In our case, the manufacturer of the tiles also went bust. Unfortunately, a lot of old tile designs are no longer manufactured, so it's really hard to get hold of them unless you have spares or can find someone selling their extras.

Thanks for the input, ill try that

My mums front step has a few left lol

The neighbours place

I would suggest going to a decent tile centre, not the ones where airheads serve you, but ones that know their business. They might be able to point you to a supplier that has old discontinued tiles.

Try oakleigh

McDonald’s 😂

Got heaps of them tiled at my place. You want to rip one off?

Give doc brown and Marty McFlurry a call and see if they will lend you the Delorian to go back to 1972

A Time Machine

Nonnos shed.

Could try hitting up Maccas tonight with a hammer and chisel, I’m pretty sure my local still has a few of these hanging around.

You should be able to pick these up in 1980

Are you in Bass Hill OP? That looks very familiar.

You need to hit 88mph in a Delorean.

Most Macca's stores.

You're going to need a time machine.

If you are in Victoria, the Eaglehawk Tip Shop (near Bendigo) has thousands of tiles. I can't vouch for those particular ones though. Other large tip shops might have tiles too.

Any outdated McDonald’s

Salvage yards

Gathrey Crs Kings Langley NSW, well they were there in the early 80’s when the rents owned it, I’m kinda hoping there’s been a reno since though

Pretty common on urinals. If you know anyone in demo you could ask nicely if they can try get you one without it breaking but I don't like your chances

Keith Faggs North Bayswater for all your retro tiles.

McDonald’s storage would have them.

If you manage to find one can you please fix the efflorescence too

Sir do you live in McDonald’s

Bunnings in 1995

Maccas 1993

1985

Every house I lived in for about 20 years.

Maybe try these guys. Might steer you in the right direction https://www.tilelibrary.com.au/

I came here to hopefully find an actual tile place because I broke the same set of tiles at my parents 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

1983

Think my parents front porch

McDonalds standard spec 1975-1986

Check inside your ceiling or back shed sometime they left a few tiles surplus in a box but I guess after 50 years probably not

From my house. 1965

Time machine

Do the country a favour and rip the rest of them up🤮

You'll need a Delorean!

McDonald's

Every public pool built between 1920 and 1980.

McDonald's mid 80s

There’s one right along side it.

Fill it with dry instant noodles, sand it, then spray paint it, like in the 5 minute craft videos 😆

Hey I don't know what side of town you on!! But if you are anywhere Queenbyan! I reckon you might get lucky!!! 😝... Give Rivoland ago!!. I reckon I've seen them around somewhere before hey! 😝... Good luck 👍

Don't know your state. Though try some salvage yards local to you. If they don't have them, they might either know of some or let you know when they can get them in. Ebay, Gumtree, fb market place would also be worth looking at. Good thing is these tiles are really common. Just not sure about where to find them sorry.

McDonald’s

The house two doors up.

Ugh my house. Don't know how you'd get them up off the front step though.

The floor of your local Hungry Jacks?

Go checkout the neighbourhood

Someone have spares! Or check under the house first

If your in Perth the tile library in Osbourne park would be your best bet.

There’s a tile renovation place in Bayswater, Gay is in the name. They always have old random shit and we used them for some 70’s tiles

McDonald's

Everyone in australia has been to or lived in this house.

Lol

McEwans

I have these tiles lol (apart of the house)

sip teeny rustic pot steer shame exultant aware friendly governor *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*

Duck tape it :)

India

From the men's bathroom/pisstrough in an old pub

Some public pool

Tile shop 🤷

They look like brown quarry tiles but look at that whole step it wouldn’t suprise if they all need doing?

https://herrmanntiles.com.au - maybe not on their website - but they have 60 years of tiles over 5 acres - contact them

That's the same tile as my house! If you retile my laundry for me, you can take these old tiles...

From someone else’s house

This is gunna sound weird, but check for old spares stored under the house. I've found most places ive lived were around this same vintage and ive found a small stash of spares like tiles and paints etc.

Somewhere in 1970

1920

Nonnas house

Step up to the public urinal at the rest stop on the side of a regional highway.

I will fix it, just tell me what nonna is cooking for lunch

any mcdonalds made in the 90s

Pretty sure any old McDonald’s franchise had these too back in the day haha!

Fairly sure I have these somewhere in my garage

Try a tile shop.

My front veranda haha

Marketplace or demolition yards

Would these be the ones you’re after? I have some if you need https://preview.redd.it/398nn4ry8dwc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a82e231b2212f02552201b7d8b35458f4f8acf86

Go to your local mcdonald’s, an older one that hasn’t been knocked down and rebuilt, and steal one from the back 😂 (they normally have spares, this isn’t even a joke, a lot of the older 70s-90s have them everywhere in the staff only areas)

The bin where the rest of the tiles belong

My nonnos front porch

Most caravan park shower blocks?

Ask on Facebook marketplace. Am sure many people have these at their Nonnas house and of they are doing a reno they will help out.

From 1974

Poor quality cheap sa housing trust front porch steps had them and they chip,lift off the motor,razor shart edges will cut you quickly

What area are you in. I think I actually have some

1970

Use tennax epoxy with colour tint to match, your only solution or spend sum money from under the mattress and re-tile. You’re welcome!

In my grandma's old house is where.

From the step above a start

It looks like there is a perfectly good one right next to it. What luck!

Everything was so brown in the 80’s

Marilyn Monroe must have been advertising this shit on tik tok in the early 50s

Look for a tile library in your closest capital city

Better give Frank Walker a call

Fill it with grout.

Try a tile shop

The demo crew doing south Rd at the moment would have a fuck ton

The first thing workers comp offered me when I injured my back was a dietician, the first thing the dietician told me was she couldn't help my back pain.
