1964 – Goyak Construction

16 January 2025

Harrison Street at Frisbie Street

The Goyak Construction Company was in Richmond. Nick Goyak (1892-1968) was a Croatian immigrant from Veliko Brdo who arrived with his family in 1929. This mark is in the roadway along the curb. (Thanks to Ken for spotting this one.)

Good old A. G. Moniz! This mark establishes him in the 1960s.

A. J. Ferrero also used his trapezoidal mark this year. The two marks overlapped from 1964 to 1966—at least, I have examples of both this lozenge and the trapezoid from 1964 and 1966 so far.

R. G. Wolfe kept things classy in the 1960s while all around him the old ways were falling apart.

Yes, I recorded this year before, but that was one of the most wretched marks I’ve ever deciphered. Even this mark is better than that one.

I’ve documented this maker and date before, but this is a much better example.
