#84 1992 black American Standard Afwall toilets.

This bathroom is very original! Even the original Olsonite toilet seats are intact. This was originally a Hudson's department store. Now, It's a Macy's.

[@taylorperry1790]

I'm just shocked at how nice those toilets are! I was afraid they'd sound loud but they were pretty nice and the swirling made it great

[@Blublod]

Wow! First time seeing a black Afwall. The fixtures look pristine. Great find.

[@erikbunty2016]

Rare.

[@jasonmartinez5116]

Amazing Afwalls and the color

[@DuramaxL5P]

I love a nice black toilet. A pretty rare find!

[@vintagekohler6085]

Me too! The black porcelain is amazing!

[@jbsimmons54]

Nice, but sure shows limescale quite well.... Must be a ritzy place! Had a friend's wife who spec'd black fixtures in the downstairs powder room. I asked why and she said "in upper echelon society it's proper to hide the sight of 💩". Well, excuuuuuuse me! Now if only she could get black TP....

@@jbsimmons54 That was a funny story 🤣

[@vintagetoiletsusa1674]

Macy's has been remodeling a lot of there stores lately. Unfortunately the ones that were remodeled out here had newer fixtures installed. Including a bathroom with rare Kohler Kingston urinals and Kingston toilets. Good thing I filmed it.

[@vintagekohler6085]

That would be quite a find! I've never seen a Kingston urinal.

[@vintagetoiletsusa1674]

@@vintagekohler6085 Definitely. Unfortunately the only ones I've seen have been replaced. Other than other videos I've seen of them I am not aware of where any more do exist.

[@DylanR99]

Huh... was the Kohler Kingston urinal the one with the Freshman urinal trapway, but everything else is different?

[@CapturingToilets]

Absolutely stunning!!

[@vintagekohler6085]

Stunning is right! There is something just luxurious about all the luster and sparkly reflections! I've noticed that It's important to have good lighting with black fixtures and lighter walls. I knew of a bathroom once with a black Kohler Memoirs. A beautiful toilet, but the whole rest of the bathroom was fairly dark with black stone floor and gold leaf, brownish wall paper. The whole room sucked the available light which wasnt great to begin with. The toilet didn't stand out and sparkle like it should!

Model 2477, a carryover from F-2477 with a Olsonite 10CC (pre-Bemis acquisition). These were produced from 1967 until 1997, but the 1.6 model (2257) was not until 1992 when it became produced in tandem with the 3.5 model (2477)

[@erikbunty2016]

These seats originally had four bumpers before they went to two.

[@user-hf1fg1pe5o]

I like black toilet

[@3nzocarter11]

This toilet is RARE in black

[@toiletsroc]

Cool fixtures! I am yet to come across colored flushometer fixtures, besides the baby blue crane fixtures at a local hospital (you have to be looking to notice a difference) The only colored tank toilet I’ve seen installed was a pink 1954 Wellworth at a friends house, but I’ve also seen plenty of them uninstalled

[@erikbunty2016]

I've seen beige or bone colored flushometer fixtures in many places.

[@Landaux]

It’s cool how the trap way is totally invisible until the water Siphons out through it

[@KingstonAddict]

Did you know that many different Macy’s stores are closing across the country? I hope that store isn’t gonna close. My Macy’s is supposed to close.

[@vintagekohler6085]

I have heard that but I haven't checked about this store. That would be a bummer!

[@KingstonAddict]

vintage kohler it really would! These are definitely valuable imo.

[@darfieldzone5309]

Kingston Addict my local Macy’s closed last year. They had 2 2000’s Kohler Freshman’s and 2 Kingston’s the same age.

[@ToiletsofArizona]

Nice

[@thetoiletfrenzy]

These are cool! I wonder if Kingston Water Guards exist in black

[@vintagekohler6085]

Oh yes, there is a video of some black Kingston Water Guards. I think the video belongs to Paul W.

[@IAPLWXEASProductions]

Awesome.

[@thetoiletfrenzy]

Also, out of curiosity, since you said this used to be a Hudsons, have you been to any other Hudsons stores? If so, do they have any particular fixture patterns?

[@vintagekohler6085]

I've never been to another Hudson's. There is a video of some black KK Water Guards at a store that was built as a Dayton's. Dayton's owned Hudsons in the 90s and I'm guessing the 2 stores were pretty similar. It's kind of confusing but Hudson's started out a a huge many level department store in Downtown Detroit. Dayton's started in Minneapolis and they bought Hudson's out at some point. I believe Dayton's also launched Target. Anyway, Here are the Kingston Water Guards: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYDZaIeCmdJ7hdU

But is has a black 1.6 Afwall been filmed on YT?

[@vintagekohler6085]

Good question. I don't recall seeing one, but somebody might have filmed a black 1.6 Afwall.

[@thetoiletfrenzy]

There's a black 1.28 afwall

[@aldoayhoniz190]

The last decent generation of Afwalls. Since the next one they became crap.

[@vintagekohler6085]

I agree! I do like the 70s version better and of course my favorite is the 50s version, but these 90s ones are great toilets.
