All Saints Way

'Mock all and sundry things, but leave the saints alone.' So goes an old Italian saying that is now posted on the wall of a tiny alleyway off Battery St. The sign is surrounded by thousands of images of saints. The shrine is the pet project of North End resident Peter Baldassari, who has been collecting holy cards since his childhood here in the 1940s and 1950s. Peek through the locked gate to catch a glimpse.
