1923 – N. J. Lindstrom

16 June 2023

1923v

722 Washington Street

At this time N. J. Lindstrom was using both this straight mark and a racetrack mark. That tiny little “S” also appears in his mark from 1922.

[Now moved from a combination post into its own post]

1923 – Schnoor Bros.

19 January 2019

Roslyn Court, Berkeley

This mark is on the stairway leading up to Hillcrest Road, one of Berkeley’s most obscure corners. With this date documented, I have just six years missing, 1916-1921.

1923 – F. E. Flaherty

1923u

9712 Birch Street

This establishes an earlier first year for Flaherty.

Corners: Glen Park Road and E. 38th Street

glenpark-e38thstreet

The corner at this intersection was laid down in 1923 by C. A. Lindstrom. However, at the time East 38th intersected with 14th Avenue. Later this section of 14th, just past where the eastbound 57/58L/NL lines turn onto MacArthur, was renamed Glen Park Road.

Corners: Suter and 39th Avenue

Suter-39thAve

The last time I put up a corner mark, I said that they aren’t dated or signed. There are exceptions, though. C. A. Lindstrom laid down this Allendale corner in 1923.

1923 – Jepsen Bros.

22 April 2014

1923t

2626 High Street

This probably dates from the establishment of the funeral home at this address. Jepsen Bros. marks are scarce in this part of town.

1923 – F. W. Metge

16 November 2013

1923s

2730 Abbey Street

This is a new configuration of the Metge mark for me, and my favorite so far.
