Nor'easter photos echo 1930 scene on Wollaston Beach

Original: Blown by nor'easter onto Quincy's Wollaston Beach: August 1930 by the great Boston Herald photographer Leslie Jones... .

A nor'easter that blew boats onto Quincy's Wollaston Beach has drawn comparisons with an August 1930 photograph of a similar scene by Boston Herald photographer Leslie Jones. A new image of the aftermath, credited to Boston Globe photographer David L. Ryan, is being shared alongside the archive shot, highlighting how little the storm-battered beachfront tableau has changed across nearly a century.

Why now: A current nor'easter produced strikingly similar images to a famous 1930 photograph of the same beach.
