Window-shopping for history,
visitors stroll along cobbled Seaport
Street, whose venerable shops face
the Mystic River. As a setting for its
vessel-lined wharves, the Marine
Historical Association scoured the
east coast for old maritime buildings
and moved them to the Seaport,
creating an authentic coastal village
of acentury ago. Horse-drawn wagon
holds barrels for ship's provisions.

Mystic Seaport
,OR CENTURIES the men of Mystic built ships
?schooners, whalers, clippers?and sailed
them to earth's far corners. Then steam overtook
the windships,and one by one they died. Alarmed,
three citizens formed the Marine Historical As-
sociation in 1929, and out of it grew the living
maritime museum called Mystic Seaport. To its
site came gifts of small craft and schooners, an-
chors and heirlooms. Today more than 400,000
persons a year come to rediscover a glorious era.
