The Hancock under construction

Interesting photo from 1971, part of a large new batch of photos by Nick DeWolf, who took thousands of Boston and Cambridge photos from the '50s on.

Also see these photos of James Coburn making a movie on Beacon Hill in 1971 (see, they were making movies here before tax breaks).

I own a trilogy of the first Hancock building being built in 1947 - paintings by Charles Demetropoulos. The only original art I own.
