Kearny & Vermehr Place 1919 View east across Kearny to 122-130 Kearny, White Lunch Co. with delivery trucks and drivers in front. "Never Closed", "Ascend The Marble Stairway to the White Lunch Cafenet"; D.C. Heger Art Neckwear 116-118 Kearny; W.J. Hesthal Golden Gate Loan Office, 110 Kearny.

 

Surely these sparkling new Dodge Brothers Commercial Cars landed in promotional DB literature somewhere...

Man with Parrot on his shoulder.

Union & Stockton 1924

Note the two signs Modern Painting Co and Carpenter and Builder in background.

I post things like this in hopes of identifying the man, the type of vehicle and hoping to help others connect the family business at the time.

A look at a rare AAA Arterial sign as the motorcyle officer poses. Note the Chrysler garage in background.
