Bova's, Boston 1906 Railroads He endeared himself to hisThis colorful menu cover dated circa 1906 represents a truly ethnic, period Italian restaurant in Boston, with every menu category written in Italian. Food was served at Bovas at any time of the day and a ten course dinner including wine was 75 cents.
