In the early-1930s, a committee was formed in Massachusetts to identify and detail significant sites in our state's great past. The committee -- The Massachusetts Bay Colony Tercentenary Commission -- put up iron signs at various points around the state. The signs are often in neglect but a small few show signs of great care. Personally, I think a little rust and dirt adds character and authenticity to the site. These signs can be found in downtown areas, along major roadways, in the middle of nowhere, on private land, and elsewhere.
This is my photo project to get most, if not all, of these links to our past. If you know of one and want to share your information, drop me an e-mail at douging@hotmail.com. Thanks! 79 and counting...
