BRASS SIDEWALK MARKER 1910

43 Hartford, Tower Grove South, 1910

When I was a kid, I used to see these all over our neighborhood and in other parts of the city. Due to many sidewalks being replaced due to damage along with wheel chair accessible sidewalk corners, many of these markers landed in a dump.

If you've any photos of these or know the location of one in St. Louis, run that info over el pronto.

I've got some shots of these on my Flickr account - - their approximate locations are mapped via the geotagging feature. And thanks for maintaining such an informative blog.

I am a huge sidewalk marker fan. I have a pretty decent collection of markers from all over the city, and sometimes post about them on my blog.
