A City's Self-Image Through the Years

Mystic River Bridge connecting Chelsea and Boston, Mass. by Boston Public Library.

Today Universalhub.com alerts us that the Boston Public Library has put a bunch of photos from its collection on Flickr.  Check them out.  Very cool stuff.

I find it especially interesting to consider which landmarks the city has been proud of enough to put on postcards.  For instance, they seemed to like having roadways along the Charles.  Do they still make postcards of North Station?  The Mystic River Bridge (right)?
