1929 – A. Casqueiro

1929lll

1815 105th Avenue

I’ve documented this year before, but this mark is much clearer and I have no ambivalence about it.

1927 – Frank Lopes

1927ww

1833 106th Avenue

This early mark by Frank Lopes is quite handsome, I think.

1921 – L. M. Rasmussen

11 May 2013

1921o

1832 105th Avenue

Unlike my previous 1921 Rasmussen mark, this one is not broken.

1911 – Nelson-Johnson Co.

1911p

2601 E. 22nd Street

An unexpected bit of history.

Frank Massaro

2139 107th Avenue

This block has several marks from Massaro, whose solo marks (from after his stint as part of Triberti & Massaro, in the 1940s) are rare and always undated. This is the best of the bunch, and probably the best in the city.

1941 – Frank Lopes

1941tt

1939 107th Avenue

1939 – A. J. Warren

1939fff

1915 107th Avenue

The owner here appears to have preserved the old mark during a repaving. That’s sweet, but there are several others on the same block.
