Oakland Underfoot

867 Warfield Avenue

Unlike my other strike from the same year and month, this one puts the year first instead of the month. Go figure.

2412 26th Avenue

I posted a 1933 Doty mark before, but this is a much better, standard version of his stamp.

2815 Avalon Avenue, Berkeley

This is W. Todd’s usual mark with the date underneath, unlike my other 1933 example.

404 Vernon Street

Now I have a high-arch and a low-arch mark from this year.

This house is quite something.

3916 Fairway Avenue

This is a far better strike of the Lovisone mark than the previous one I documented. I can safely say it’s the best in Oakland.

1229 87th Avenue

A nice strike.

5938 Morse Street

Unlike my other version of Rasmussen’s mark from 1933, this one leaves the stub date at the top truncated.

This is a good time to mention that I will be giving a talk to the Oakland Heritage Alliance about Oakland’s sidewalk stamps on Thursday, January 15, at 7 pm up at Chapel of the Chimes. Watch for details over there.
