1938uuu

9616 Cherry Street

F. E. Flaherty sometimes used a large stamp with just his last name. This loooks like the same one I’ve recorded from 1937.

1932 – S. Giuntoli

1927sss

1201 95th Avenue

By now I think the story of S. Giuntoli’s stamp is clear: he started in the 1920s, using a stamp with “192_” dates. Some time before 1932 he switched to using tiny numerals for the last two digits of the date, adding the month and day using the same tiny numerals.

This establishes an earlier first year for Flaherty.

This is the last of the Costellos until I find another.
