356 Peralta Street
This is the second of two marks I collected in the South Prescott neigborhood, an area I liked more than I expected.
1947 – Andrade
13 September 20111941 – G. Tribuzio
12 September 2011
5227 Masonic Avenue
1941 – L. Scaramelli
11 September 2011
5500 Masonic Avenue
I have another Scaramelli mark from this year, but that’s an ordinary stamp whereas this is a fine hand-drawn mark.
1925 – P. Fugel
10 September 2011
1403 5th Street
The South Prescott neighborhood has some very old homes, but not many sidewalk stamps. This is one of just two worth adding here. There’s a nice 1912 Sandin & Swanson mark on Peralta Street, though.
A. J. Warren
9 September 2011
400 Florence Avenue
Another new name in the menagerie of Oakland sidewalk contractors.
1947 – A. J. Silva
8 September 2011
343 Florence Avenue
I have another 1947 hand-drawn mark by A. J. Silva, but this one is enclosed in braces and lacks the union bug.
1938 – Dante Del Vigna
7 September 2011
64 Sonia Street
I have another mark from this year by Dante Del Vigna, but this has a proper stamped date. This has no accent over the E in Dante, either.
