EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage postcard from around 1916 showcases the charm and character of Boston, Massachusetts. The caption humorously states, "You Don't Know Beans until you Come to Boston" inviting visitors to experience the true essence of this vibrant city. The postcard features a stunning view of several iconic landmarks that define Boston's rich history and architectural beauty. In the foreground stands the magnificent Christian Science Church, an impressive structure that dominates the skyline with its grandeur. Beyond the church, we see West Boston Bridge gracefully spanning over the Charles River Basin. This picturesque scene captures the tranquility and serenity offered by nature amidst a bustling urban environment. Further in the distance lies City Hall, an imposing building symbolizing governance and civic pride. Adjacent to it is the renowned Boston Public Library, a treasure trove of knowledge and culture for both locals and tourists alike. The postcard not only highlights these remarkable structures but also celebrates one of New England's culinary delights - beans! Known for their love affair with legumes, this playful reference adds a touch of whimsy to an otherwise historical depiction. Printed by Curt Teich Company using offset lithography techniques, this postcard serves as a visual time capsule capturing early 20th-century Boston in all its glory. Preserved at Lake County Museum today, it continues to evoke nostalgia while reminding us of how far this great city has come since then.
