Oakland Underfoot

1642 89th Avenue

This was laid down just a few weeks after the mark I showed yesterday. As is my longtime practice, I record every mark that’s 100 years old.

1445 89th Avenue

More ancient pavement from old Elmhurst. This takes G. Costello back another year, and look at this, he put the month and day inside.

1663 Auseon Street

This has the typical configuration of other Kopperud marks, with all three parts of the date underneath.

1609 86th Avenue

This mark is from very early in 1914, January to be precise. The month is up inside the mark, and the day and year are underneath.

9000 Hillside Street

This was a very busy year for Hutchinson.

6526 Harmon Avenue

East 16th Street at 61st Avenue

Very few of these in East Oakland; lots of them in the College/Piedmont area.
