If you've read my profile, you'll know that one of my passions is rare books, prints, manuscripts, etc., so every Sunday morning I'm at the flea market in Hollis, New Hampshire. This morning I happened to pick up a folder entitled "Properties of the Waltham Savings Bank" in Waltham, Massachusetts, so I thought I'd post a few pictures for the entertainment of the BP community. There are about 60 properties listed here, almost all from Waltham, but with 6 other towns represented by a single property.
Just last night I was on a foreclosure auction web site, so the parallel between the days of the Great Depression and our own recent Recession was interesting, but the contrast between the technology involved in selling these was striking! I guess "the more things change, the more they stay the same."
