1936 – Frank Lopes

1936ww

4321 Bridgeview Drive

Frank Lopes did several bits of concrete around here.

1936 – A. A. Johnson

1936vv

1635 Leimert Boulevard

This is the first A. A. Johnson mark I’ve found. There are lots of A. A. Johnson & Son marks, all of which postdate this one. (I’m thinking that the one I called 1931 is really a 1936.) That hints at a story.

1932 – G. Musso

1933 Hoover Avenue

Nice to have a representative of this charming street in the Oakmore neighborhood.

1956 – R. G. Wolfe

4283 Fruitvale Avenue

This mark completes my survey of Fruitvale Avenue, a major thoroughfare that goes from the Bay to the Oakmore hills.

1947 – Cragun & Cragun

1947y

2040 Clemens Road

1941 – Hennig

8 October 2013

1941ww

4224 Fruitvale Avenue

This gives me a complete set of Otto Hennig’s marks from 1928 to 1942.

You could call this date overdetermined: it says “Feb. 25” at the top, “1941” in the middle and “2 – 41” at the bottom.

1939 – A. J. Warren

1939jjj

2032 Clemens Road

This is rather different from my previous example from 1939, so it goes into the collection.
