A boy in mid-stride, hockey stick in hand, carries this poster for the Powder Point School, a private school for boys in Duxbury, on the South Shore south of Boston. Posters like this were often used to promote schools, and the skating scene points to the outdoor winter sports that were central to New England prep school life. Ice hockey and skating were prized there, and the image shows how schools presented those activities as part of a healthy, disciplined boyhood. Its place on a Boston board reflects the region's close ties to its surrounding towns.
