Bob Slate, Stationer

Bob Slate, Stationer

An institution in Harvard Square, there two Bob Slate stores there. This is the larger one at its new location on Brattle Street. I love stationery stores, especially this one because it carries "practical" stuff like drafting equipment. I almost always come out of it with something I suddenly developed a strong, desperate need for in its aisles -- a need that tends to dissipate the closer I get to home.

The masts belong to the ship Balclutha, berthed at Pier 43. Ten years later (1988), it was moved to the Hyde Street Pier, where it remains today.
