6212 Hillegass Avenue

It took me until late September to find a mark from the current year. Fortunately, Rosas Brothers did several jobs on this block and on 63rd Street, so the mark will endure. It’s really quite a handsome mark, worthy of the century-long heritage of Oakland sidewalk stamps.

I can picture “Harmony House” in detail, because that’s the kind of hippie house I’ve lived in more than once, complete with Captain Crash, Speed and various other characters. I rarely include amateur sidewalk marks, but this is rare and here it is.
