From 1832 to 1865, it was home to Ticknor and Fields, a publishing company founded by James Thomas Fields and William Ticknor. For part of the nineteenth century, the firm was one of the most important publishing companies in the United States, and the Old Corner Bookstore became a meeting-place for such authors as Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Charles Dickens, and Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.<3> A succession of other publishing houses and booksellers followed Ticknor and Fields in the building.<edit> PreservationThreatened with demolition in 1960, the building was "rescued" through a purchase by Historic Boston, Inc. for the sum of $100,000.<4> (Historic Boston Incorporated is a not-for-profit preservation and real estate organization that rehabilitates historic and culturally significant properties in Boston’s neighborhoods so they are a useable part of the city’s present and future). In recent times, its retail space has held a branch of the Globe Corner Bookstore (a division of the Old Corner Bookstore Inc.), which operated there from 1982 to 1997 and specializes in travel books & maps. A Boston Globe company store operated in the building from 1998 through 2002, selling Boston Globe products and tourist memorabilia. A national discount jewelry chain, Ultra Diamonds, occupied the retail space from 2005 until Ultra Diamonds' bankruptcy in 2009. The retail space is presently (2010) vacant. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is Boston Landmark under the auspices of the Boston Landmarks Commission.<edit> Image galleryAdvertisement for Carter & Hendee, 1832American Magazine of Useful and Entertaining Knowledge, v.3, 1837 (published by John L.
