Little Jack Horner used to be a joke/ head shop on Tremont Street across from the Boston common. The type of place that sold rolling papers by the foot. They went out of business in the late 80`s when the state started cracking down head shops. PVC in Quincy and Headlinesin Brockton were some of the more famous ones at that time that were either driven to New Hampshire or out of business all together when they couldn`t make it as legit record stores or joke shops.

I used to go to Jack Horners` as a kid to get rubber poop and cigarette explosives... that type of stuff. Should make them an offer on that sign.

btw- I wonder how that leg of Dot Ave will change when they reopen the stretch near the post office and regain direct access to DT Boston. Someone posted about future development possibilities of the Gillette headquartes which will be greatly enhanced by that.
