Black Swan Books is TEMPORARILY closed in the aftermath of a “water event” in an adjacent building.
We expect that we will be down through March and hope to resume sending our weekly e-catalogues in April. At that time we will be open “by appointment only”. Until then our books will not be for sale. In the meantime, you can contact us by email at nick@blackswanbooks.com.

BOSTON. STATE HOUSE AND PARK STREET STOP. BLIZZARD FEBRUARY 1898
An albumen photograph of a major snowstorm in February 1898, showing a most wintry view of the State House and Boston Common, and a very early image of the Park Street Subway stop. The Park Street Station was one of three, along with the Public Garden and Boylston. The subway opened in the Fall of 1897, and this image from February 1898 must be one of the earliest. ~~15 1/2 cm. x 20 1/2 cm. mounted on chipped gray cardstock.
