Oakland Underfoot

2421 Kingsland Avenue

2707 Maxwell Avenue

M. Cvetich used a variety of stamps even during the same year. This makes two different ones he used in 1939.

Trask Street at Kingsland Avenue

Several of the blocks around here were done by Hutchinson in May 1913.

5336 Walnut Avenue

On an early spring day in 1984, four kids from the block inscribed these four blocks on the sidewalk. Fabian, now age 41, happened to be there as I surveyed the block, and he shared memories of the day and his comrades Johnny, Kesha and Omar. As far as he could recall, all of them had stayed in Oakland.

2727 Kingsland Avenue

Someone sneaked in here and left initials, looks like.

5538 Foothill Boulevard

This address is a nondescript auto-repair place today, but I guess at one time it was Auction Alley. Does anyone remember?

5527 Brookdale Avenue

I present this mark, even though I already have a good example, because on this mark Mr. Troja-Sisto was careful enough to make it clear that the little cursive scrawl in the middle line says “st” for Street.
