 I've seen this one before. 
 Pretty definitive.  There's another that we used
 in an exhibit a number of years back that showed a giant
 loop out the 39 and
 down the hill to South Bank -- the line that was open for a
 couple months in
 1910, the one that went where exactly nobody lived!  I
 thought I had a scan
 of it but I can't find it.
 
 Officers of the Freehold Realty firm bore an amazing
 resemblance to those of
 the railway company.

 Ed,
 Here's another real estate ad from the era of Brookline
 expansion. At least
 this company shows the trolley as the means to travel to and
 from Brookline
 rather than the Liberty Tunnels.
