Beacon St., Francis Hunnewell House, 1887
Beacon St. north side, just west of Washington St.

From the 1887 photo series taken just before the widening of Beacon St., most likely by Augustine H. Folsom, a Boston photographer. This photo contains the mystery man, here leaning against the tree, who was posed in a number of the 1887 photos.
