Description:
4826 (on left) and 4824 Telegraph Avenue (looking east), Temescal district, Oakland, Calif. The building on the left was owned by the barber, Joseph Basso (c.1870-1953), who is wearing the white smock. Two apartments were over the storefront. In the 1920s, the commercial space was home to a dry goods store (where Bosso's mother, Eil Bosso, worked), and later became Breschi's Department Store. [from Don Hausler and Ray Raineri notes] The facades of two buildings subsequently were remodeled in the Moderne style, and the first floor exteriors have gone through subsequent redesigns.
