Oakland Underfoot

6320 Idaho Street

We’ll see if this name reappears.

977 63rd Street

This A. Soda mark is a full decade later than any other I’ve found. He goes back to 1913.

723 61st Street

Unlike the other 1931 Lovisone mark I have, this one’s date is way out of whack.

6319 Idaho Street

F. A. Mero has two marks here, the other one on the corresponding block of Baker Street.

6312 Herzog Street

A new maker for me, Kaus Bros. Allendale Avenue is the heart of the Allendale neighborhood in East Oakland, just downhill from the Laurel.

6322 Baker Street

This is right up next to the Berkeley line.

6250 Baker Street

I have an Estey mark already documented, but this is a much better example. Baker Street has about a dozen of these, so that’s where to go to see them. It’s a nice street in the Golden Gate district.
