Does anyone have any photos of Davis Square pre-1970? The Somerville Musuem is looking to borrow such photos (not for an exhibit, but for a fast approaching project they have been asked to help research.) They need the photos within the next week.

The Somerville Museum is located at One Westwood Rd, at the corner of Westwood Rd and Central St.

Whoever's posting all the photos to this Facebook group might be able to help. I bet James Norton and the other folks at the Somerville News also have lots of such photos. Also talk to Kristi Chase and Brandon Wilson at the Historic Preservation Commission at City Hall.

Hey Ron, I'm sure Evelyn B at the Musuem has talked to the folks you mentioned. I told her I'd get the word out via other avenues (like DSLJ). Thanks for the tip about the facebook page, I'll pursue that.

The photos on Facebook are far too low resolution to be printed out for this purpose, but the various people who are posting them probably have 'originals' that are better.
