1948 – Frank Salamid

1948

5291 College Avenue

This is the latest Frank Salamid mark I’ve found [update: I’ve found a 1949]; his work goes back to the 1910s. His marks are rarely clear. The ubiquitous undated “A SALAMID” chevron marks are from Frank’s brother Angelo and nephew Anthony.

1950 – T. J. Garvey
