1721 Tenth Street, Berkeley
I’ve documented this year before, but those marks had hand-drawn dates.
1926 – Schnoor Bros.
30 November 20191937 – East Bay C. & C. Co.
28 November 2019
1904 – Esterly Con. Co.
14 November 2019
2427 Tenth Street, Berkeley
Esterly is well represented in Oakland, and this Berkeley mark extends this maker’s work a few years earlier.
2004 – EBMUD
12 November 2019
1615 Walnut Street, Alameda
Yes, I’ve documented this year before, but not with an upside-down date.
2017 – Rosas Brothers
10 November 2019
Eastshore Drive at Central Avenue, Alameda
This is Rosas Brothers’ later stamp, which they started using in 2010. As often as not, the date is hand-drawn like this one.
2017 – Rosas Brothers
8 November 2019
Lincoln Avenue at Broadway, Alameda
I took another walk in Alameda and found another year! This is Rosas Brothers’ older stamp, which they have kept updating.
2019 – Rosas Brothers
6 November 2019
1030 Lincoln Avenue, Alameda
It doesn’t feel right to finish a year without finding a stamp with that year’s date. I missed 2017 and 2018, so this is a big relief.
