New York City
Worth visiting!
"I'll take one of each"
Most of the things here are understandably a little expensive (the shop is right in Harvard Square). BUT one thing I noticed right away were the subway / city maps of 5 cities prominently displayed in the shop:
- San Francisco 1909
- New York City elevated lines around 1916
- Paris Métro / autobus 1945
- London Underground 1963
- Tokyo around the 1950s
They are big beautiful prints from Cavallini Papers and sold as wrapping paper (not priced as posters), so they’re only $3.50 each. Cartographile that I am, I gladly got one of each and am extremely satisfied. I didn’t get to spent too much time looking around here, but I’m sure there are other such treasures to be found, as the store was full of doodads and cool things.
