Re: Frohmann, Robb and Little (Boston) blueprints



Donna, the Massachusetts Archives has approximately 65,000 sets of building
plans submitted to the Department of Public Safety for their imprimatur. The
date span for the collection is approximately 1894-1968. Unfortunately the
finding aid for the collection is a card catalogue - alphabetical by street
address. BUT the index cards do reference the architect(s). After 1968 the
plans are the responsibility of the municipal building inspector
departments.
