Looking for Facade Bricks

I have a 1853 brownstone which is in Manhattan which has been under renovation for a year. The house had stucco put over the brick facade which has now been removed-- but the bricks were damaged. Since everything is being done to restore it to its original condition the decision was made to turn the bricks around-- but many were damaged beyond repair and can not be used.I am looking to buy about 1000 bricks which would be from the same era. While my house is not in Brooklyn, we are using a Brooklyn contractor-- Harry Dewees ( Dewees - Mellor) and after talking with him I decided to humbly post this seeing if anyone could possibly help. Thank you.
