Boston Public Library Has Historic Photos Online [View all]

I was checking my email this morning and was looking at a BPL eNews message:


10 Million

Earlier this month, the library's ever-growing Flickr photostream received its 10 millionth view. To date, there are more than 65,000 images available to view on an array of subjects. Find images from the Great Fire of 1872, the Molasses Disaster of 1919, the Cocoanut Grove Fire of 1942, and much more.

I was especially interested in photos from the Great Molasses Flood of 1919:
