Description: $1 flat for the first 4 cards, plus $0.33 for each additional postcard, unless specified otherwise. This Real Photo Postcard (RPPC) depicts a historical view of the Public Garden entrance to the subway in Boston, Massachusetts. The image shows a streetcar arriving at the entrance, surrounded by well-dressed pedestrians typical of the early 20th century. The gathering at the subway entrance, with trees lining the streets, captures a moment in the bustling urban life of Boston during this era. The postcard includes handwritten correspondence on the front and back, adding a personal touch and a glimpse into life from over a century ago. The back of the card features a postmark dated October 3, 1905, from Boston, with a 1-cent Benjamin Franklin green stamp, which may be of historical interest to philatelists. The postcard was sent to Frank W. Joslin in Smyrna, Michigan. Published by The Metropolitan News Co., Boston.
