1941 – Nick Tribuzio

26 June 2011

1941

2532 99th Avenue

OK, N. Tribuzio and G. Tribuzio marks are common, especially G., but this is the first Nick Tribuzio mark I’ve found. It’s later than any N. Tribuzio mark, so it might be N. using his full name, or it might be another family member.

1941 – Geo. Riding

Geo. Riding may be the guy in Duffin & Riding.

1941 family portrait

24 June 2011

1941

112 Marlow Drive

Sheffield Village, at least my first sample of it, doesn’t have many different sidewalk stamps. There were a lot of A. J. Marin marks, and this family portrait circa February 3, 1941. From left to right are Pat’s hands, Eddie’s hands (very faint and out of the frame), Pat’s feet and the word “Veria” or “Verla”.

1940 – N. Ferri

23 June 2011

1940

9865 Thermal Street

The mysterious N. Ferri reappears! While the mark itself seems to say 1937, the date beneath is clearly 1940, as corroborated by several other marks on this block.

1938 – F. Verheyen

F. Verheyen is a new name for me.

1937 – M. Dias

1937

10027 Pippin Street

This is a hand-drawn M. Dias mark, unlike the two earlier ones from Toler Heights.

1931 – J. Rodrigues

20 June 2011

1931

10300 Pippin Street

I’m thinking this would be in the Stonehurst neighborhood. I saw it on a 1939 map and figured it was paved at the time, unlike Sobrante Park just to the west. It was no surprise to see J. Rodrigues here.
