1974 – Apodaca Bros.

1974b

2208 E. 17th Street

This is one of the rarest years on Oakland sidewalks. It’s a long story, but I blame Nixon.

1930 – Joe. B. Silva

1915 – W. N. Whitmore

The date is easier to see in person.

1913 – Nelson

13 April 2013

1913p

2128 E. 19th Street

I presume this is the same Nelson who paved a lot of the neighborhood in 1912 with Johnson.

E. 20th Street at 21st Avenue

“JCH” is probably an amateur.
