The 1970s are a real black hole in Oakland sidewalk stamps. I blame Richard Nixon. This is the first legitimate stamp I’ve found from 1971 (but do check out the other two I’ve found). Fortunately, this block has several of these, so it won’t soon go extinct.

1123 El Centro Avenue
This beautiful example, one of many on this block, is an upgrade to the sketchy one I recorded in August.

1115 Clarendon Crescent
Yes, I recorded this year before, but that was one of the most wretched marks I’ve ever deciphered. Even this mark is better than that one.

4360 Edgewood Avenue
I’ve documented this year before, but that one was questionable and this is certainly not.
