Oakland Underfoot

4178 Culver Street

This is a different configuration of Warren’s hand-drawn mark—but really I just wanted to testify about Culver Street, a lovely collection of period stucco homes.

3241 Liese Street

This is much more complete than my previous Poblitz mark from this year, although it’s still a mess.

3109 Minna Avenue

This pushes Otto Hennig back another year.

3109 Eastman Avenue

The elusive A. Rodrigues of “Haward” shows up again! This is one of a pair at this address.

3035 Eastman Avenue

This neighborhood was extensively worked on by J. B. Lee, but the marks are almost all from 1925. Not this baby, which is one of a pair.

3134 Minna Avenue

This sheds light on the early history of (I presume) W. Pool and J. B. Lee—they were a team. And Pool kept a look similar to this classic early Deco font in his separate practice.

5450 Crittenden Street

The mysterious and ambiguous J. Widel(l) appears again. I have a hand-drawn mark from this year too.
