They’re all over Berkeley as well. I counted at least three on my block, all from the 1910s and 1920s.
The only other place I’ve noticed them to be as plentiful was when we lived in Providence, though those were all brass plaques set into the concrete (presumably to withstand the weather).

I treasure this book I’ve had for 40-odd years for many reasons, including:
1. the design
2. the fact that this “A–Z of Rock in the ’80s” was published in 1983
3. the authors are Australian, so I learned about so many bands I never would have heard of otherwise
