Oakland Underfoot

4844 Allendale Avenue

4206 Atlas Avenue

My other example from this year, Poblitz was careful to include his phone number, but this time he didn’t care.

3922 Magee Avenue

C. Fischer (sometimes Fisher) used a proper stamp, at least in 1938, but the hand-drawn marks outnumber them so far.

1909 Wrenn Street

I have another mark from this year with only the top line.

1932 Crosby Avenue

There are three Vieiras on Oakland’s sidewalks. J. C. Vieira came before and after F. C. Vieira, and of the mysterious J. R. Vieira I have just one example with no date.

4321 Bridgeview Drive

Frank Lopes did several bits of concrete around here.

1635 Leimert Boulevard

This is the first A. A. Johnson mark I’ve found. There are lots of A. A. Johnson & Son marks, all of which postdate this one. (I’m thinking that the one I called 1931 is really a 1936.) That hints at a story.
