The monthly magazine "Personal Publishing" has some ads for places - 
I don't know if these are any good:

Rapid Transmit  8007 Douglas Ave, Racine WI 53402     800-247-8494
Typeline  170 State St, Teaneck NJ 07666              201-837-9839
Diskgraphics 2820 Taylor St, Dallas TX 75226          214-748-0661

Apparently, these places use Allied Linotron 300 Lasersetters with 
2540 dpi, Postscript input, and various other things depending on the
shop, such as modem download or compatability with various systems.
You might give Allied Linotype a call and find out who their
customers in Boston are;  there are Postscript shops in Portland, 
so they should be all over.  

Let the net know about your results...
