1795 Time Capsule Buried By Sam Adams, Paul Revere Opened In Boston « CBS Boston
The oldest time capsule in America was opened in Boston Tuesday night.
For history buffs, it was the Super Bowl, or rather the ‘super box’. It’s five by seven inches and 220 years old: two centuries older than Paul Revere IV.“We are a pretty forward looking city but we get to remember old stuff,” Paul Revere IV said at the ceremony.
Paul’s great, great, great, great, great, grandfather is Paul Revere. In 1795, Revere and Governor Samuel Adams placed it under a cornerstone of the new State House.
