5823 Virmar Avenue
A rare double impression.
1938 – East Bay C. & C. Co.
30 December 20081938 – F. E. Flaherty
29 December 2008
5948 Taft Avenue
This mark features the full year rather than a day and month.
1936 – H. C. Petersen
28 December 2008
5944 Taft Avenue
One of a long parade of Petersen marks over the years.
1935 – F. E. Flaherty
27 December 2008
6100 Taft Avenue
This Flaherty mark is so large I couldn’t get it all. Usually they’re a bit smaller, and cut with a proper mold rather than hand-scratched.
1933 – J. Triberti & F. Massaro
26 December 2008
5750 Mendocino Avenue
Triberti & Massaro marks are rarely even readable, let alone dated.
1932 – Jas. E. Wentworth
25 December 2008
5934 Taft Avenue
Jas. E. Wentworth marks seem to be reliably clean.
1931 – Frank Lopes
24 December 2008
2065 Monroe Avenue
A 1944 mark by Frank Lopes shows him in San Leandro, but this one doesn’t give a city.
