Very nice work on the research. Looks like a nice neighborhood.

He and his family are at 1318 Mosby in 1930, prior to 1920 it was known as Mechanicsville Turnpike, but the house number was still 1318. His father owned a grocery store in 1910 and 1920 according to census data, presumably it may have been at the same location. Thus he probably had easy access to cigarette cards from the customers.

One of these two buildings is the store, I am pretty sure it's the gray two story.
