There are several of these on Stantonville, and also across Skyline on Chadbourne Way.

1314 E. 26th Street
This example is good enough to tell me that I was wrong in thinking that the numerals were a date. Instead, the mark reads “Leonard De Guarda / 4040 Quigley St”, an address at the very end of Quigley Street north of High Street.
