Posted By: <b>Chris Counts</b><p>I'm going to be in Boston this week, and I'm also planning to drive up into New Hampshire and Vermont. Does anybody have any recommendations for vintage card shops?

Both shops are on Bromfield street which runs between PArk and Washington Streets (both streets have a subway stop).<br /><br />Halls Nostalgia in Arlington is closed. They may still have another store (Lynn?).

Posted By: <b>Chris Counts</b><p>Thanks for the tips. JJ's Tea Party is a real treasure. A great selection of old cards, and while they don't have much that's pre-war, they have a good selection of Play Balls. Reasonable prices, and they're nice folks, too. After a fruitful visit (I collect Play Balls), I walked about 30 minutes over to Fenway Park for a $12 tour of the ballpark. Now that was a bargain! I never did find the Cy Young statue, though, which evidentally marks the former location of the Sox' pre-Fenway ballpark. By the way, the coin store just a couple doors down the street from JJ's had some decent T206s, including a few stars.
