1948 – C. Valenzuela

19 October 2011

1948

1439 29th Avenue

As I suspected, Fruitvale looks like it’s a hotbed of early C. Valenzuela marks.

1937 – Aaron Dahlquist

1937

1511 29th Avenue

Cute date made with nail holes, I would guess.

1929 – Oak. Concrete T&M Co.

17 October 2011

19129

2800 block East 16th Street

This is on a driveway across from 2830 E 16th.

1914 – A. E. Derby

16 October 2011

1914

East 16th Street at 29th Avenue

This mark is rather near little Derby Avenue, so I wonder if the street is named for the contractor.

1961 – C. Valenzuela

15 October 2011

1961

864 Sunnyhills Road

Until I found this, 1961 was my last year in the 1960s with only one representative mark.

1946 – A. J. Silva

14 October 2011

1946

874 Alma Place

1941 – P. Barale & Co.

13 October 2011

1941

1150 Holman Road

This pushes P. Barale into the 1940s, and oddly it includes the “& Co.” that disappeared after 1932.
