Mertie West and another woman stand down the street from Old South Meeting House, Boston, 1947

Description:
A poorly-lit photograph, from left to right, of Mertie West and an unidentified woman standing down the street from the Old South Meeting House in the Downtown Crossing neighborhood of Boston. Washington Street spans the width of the image along the bottom edge. It extends back through the center of the image, curving to the left before disappearing behind buildings. Mertie West and another woman stand in the middle of the street at center. Mertie is leftmost and stands in profile, facing right. The woman at right turns her back to the camera. Buildings line both sides of Washington Street as it stretches into the background. At right and in the near distance, the Old South Meeting House stands. The church's bell tower juts out towards the street. A clock is inset on the near side of the tower. The tower is capped by a tall steeple. Four punched holes line the left edge.
