Old Street Scenes

the Cities Service sign in these two pictures...could that be the precursor sign to the present day Citgo sign that you see above the "Green Monster" at Fenway Park????? There are lots of pictures out there of the current Citgo sign (which, for those who have never seen it, is a totally different logo than the Cities Service sign in these pics) but have had a hard time finding any of the older Cities Service sign.

I can't see any of Fenway Park in either of these pics, but in the first one the sign on the bank building has "Boston" on it, so can i at least assume that these pics were taken in Boston?

Also, there is a "Calso" (Standard Oil of California, aka Chevron) sign on one of the other buildings. i have seen pics from inside Fenway Park that show a Chevron sign, and others that show a Gulf Oil sign aboce the Green Monster.
