emember those booths where you could have your picture taken—with a friend, if desired—in black and white? Well, we know where to find one. It’s in Diesel Café, a much-bigger-than-it-looks, industrial-themed lounge café in uber-hip Davis Square, with couches, pool tables, and, of course, the aforementioned vintage photo booth. Diesel attracts a young, laptop- and tablet-tapping crowd thanks to its wifi and cool vibe. Geiger
The first Photomaton photo booth in Boston was installed in 1927 in Filene’s department store. Photo Era magazine reported, “You need no longer be dull in Boston if you have twenty-five cents and a face.”
