This beat-up mark pushes F. E. Flaherty’s original racetrack mark forward three more years.
1931 – C. L. Rogers

This replaces my previous example, which was pretty faint.
1914 – The Oakland Paving Co.

Very few of these in East Oakland; lots of them in the College/Piedmont area.
1914 – A. H. Kopperud

2411 Seminary Avenue
This mark is a few days earlier than the Kopperud mark with the palindromic date.
1914 – Avelar & Co.

2419 Seminary Avenue
There are a bunch of those all along Seminary between International and Foothill Boulevards. This is the best of them.
1912 – Fred H. Austin
30 July 2014
1947 Seminary Avenue
I’ve found two configurations of the 1912 Fred Austin mark; this is the more common one (the other has a curving date). It’s missing the outline because it apparently wasn’t pressed down as hard as usual.
