Benjamin Franlin considered himself a printer
above all esle. His famous epitaph immortalized
this view: "The body of Benjamin Franklin,
Printer (like the cover of an old book, its
contents torn out and stripped of lettering +
gilding), lies here, food for worms; but the
work shall not be lost, for it will appear
once more in a new + more elegant edition,
revised and corrected by the Author."
-WIlliam Bradford set up the first press in
Philadelphia in 1685 (Kalendarium) Through the
enterprise of Braford + William Rittenhouse,
a papermaking business was begun in Pennsylvania
in 1690.
