Dorchester Illustration no. 2232
This realphoto postcard shows the pharmacy of W. H. Chamberlain at 357 Adams Street, corner of Parkman Street (where the locksmith is today). The bakery belonging to John L. Whytal Jr. appears to the right at 353 Adams Street. The postmark seems to be from December 1905. The 1905 city directory shows both of these businesses at these locations, although both had other locations as well — Chamberlain at 73 Green Street and Whytal at 413 Geneva.
