Oakland Underfoot

2658 Seminary Avenue

This is only the second mark I’ve found by John Masson; will probably be the best one I ever find.

6825 Avenal Avenue

This is satisfying, because I’ve recorded several other Fitzmaurice marks from this year, but the date has always been handwritten. Here’s a beautifully stamped date, AND in the rich red concrete of the Havenscourt neighborhood.

3245 Millsview Avenue

2028 64th Avenue

This mark establishes that L. Banchero removed the “& Co.” from his mark after this year, because as of 1934 that text is missing.

Young Avenue

Only the shape of the oval and style of the numbers gives this away as a McCaffrey mark. Unlike my other example, this one has normal-sized numbers.

3325 Florida Street
