1931 – Ed Doty

20 September 2009

1931

512 41st Street

This block has some remarkable buildings as well as this early Ed Doty mark.

1929 – D. Muzzio

1929

536 46th Street

A high-quality D. Muzzio mark elsewhere tells me that this was Muzzio’s business address.

1920 – Fugel Bros.

18 September 2009

1920

Howe Street near Ridgeway Avenue

Another concrete dynasty—I have a J. P. Fugel from 1916, a P. Fugel Sons from 1927, and this Fugel Bros. mark from 1920. It’s a little confusing.

1908 – C. B. Burnham

1908

559 44th Street

1907 – Peterson & Adler

16 September 2009

1907

1901 – Peterson & Adler

15 September 2009

1901

548 43d Street

I already have a 1901 mark from Peterson & Adler, but here’s another one. This is right at the edge of the strip of homes that was wiped out for the Grove-Shafter Freeway back in the early 1970s.

1967 – Apodaca Bros.

1967

425 41st Street

Apodaca Bros. marks are generally oval, but this must be an early straight version.
