Ah, nice find!  I wouldn't consider it a brick though being only 2/3 the height.

<p>You didn't say anything about <strong>modified</strong> 1 x bricks. </p>

<ul>
<li>This is <strong>Item 47978</strong> and it is actually listed as a <strong>2x24</strong> brick, because of the added bit in the middle. </li>

<p>Out of curiosity: How long can a 1×x brick be?</p>

<p>When there are differences, I can think of the following categories:</p>

<ul>
<li>Longest brick ever included in a regular Lego set</li>
<li>Longest brick ever available through other channels</li>
<li>Longest brick produced ever and visible on exhibits or other occasions, but unavailable to the public</li>
</ul>

<p>EDIT: I am only interested in bricks made by LEGO, clone brands do not count.</p>

Within bricks, do you include plates and tiles?
