1939 – Ransome Company

20 April 2009

1939

485 Cavour Street

When I took this photo I couldn’t make out the name, but with the low sun in November it showed up more clearly.

1939 – C Troja-Sisto

15 March 2009

1939

4453 Pleasant Valley Court North

This is the earliest Troja-Sisto mark I’ve found, and definitely the cleanest.

1939 – M. Medis

1 February 2009

1939

3909 Shafter Avenue

Here’s another Medis mark that used the “192-” template, at least ten years after he first acquired the stamp. Cheapskate.

1939 – F. E. Flaherty

2 January 2009

1939

5718 Broadway

F. E. Flaherty didn’t always use the F. or the E.; perhaps a pattern will emerge as I document more of his marks.

1939 – East Bay C. & C. Co.

1 December 2008

1939

5559 Taft Avenue

1939 – W. Todd

5 November 2008

1939

4130 Manila Avenue

First W Todd mark I’ve found.

1939 – N. Tribuzio

5 November 2008

1939

4427 Montgomery Street

Unlike the earlier N. Tribuzio marks I have from 1927 and 1930, this one is hand-drawn.
