Was wondering if anyone has seen a bathroom sink like this one. The only markings I can find on it. are MO-0 C766. I have looked all over and cannot find a makers mark.

Re: Corner bathroom sink
I'm pretty sure I've seen one very similar o this before, but I can't really tell you much more than that. What kind of information are you wondering about? It's definitely an early 1900s sink (probably made between 1910-1930). It looks like it was added later when the house got plumbing (since it overlaps the window mouldings).
Re: Corner bathroom sink
Sorry I should have put down more of what I was looking for. Yes it was added much later when the house got some plumbing. I was mostly looking for ideas on when it would have been made. I have tried to find out might have made it, but there is very little markings on it.

Have you taken it off the wall? The stamp is often on the rear of the backplash. It might even be on the hanger. The pedestal might be maked, too. You might be able to see it with an inspection mirror if you're that determined.
The easy guess is that it's one of the big American manufacturers like American Standard.

It looks like a J.L. Mott to me. The pegleg and styling resemble my sink. And how wonderful that you have all that in a corner sink! Very cool.
You can see the one I was lucky enough to find way down on this page:

I have a Mott catalog from the early 1900s and will try to find time to look in it for your sink this weekend.
