Abiah Folger Franklin, Ben’s Mom, 1707

Franklin was awarded an honorary degree of Master of Arts by the President and Fellows of Harvard College (now University) on July 25, He wrote with pride that "without studying at any college, I came to partake of their honours.”

Stranded in London during his youth when an expected patron failed him, Franklin found work at a printing house for two years ( ) to save enough money for his passage home. This printing press is one that he used there.

The composing stick is an essential tool for setting type by hand. The printer adjusts the stick to the width of the lines of type to be set, then puts the metal type in upside down, letter-by-letter and line-by-line. As several lines of type are completed, they are transferred onto a galley and held until the page of type is complete.

Two leather inking pads, also called ink balls, with wooden handles, used to spread ink over a composed page of type.

Members of the Library Company were encouraged to write suggested titles of books they wished the library to purchase, and place them in "the lion's mouth": the opening cut into the lid of this box.

The seal of the Library Company of Philadelphia was designed by Franklin and crafted by the silversmith Philip Syng, Jr. Syng, a close associate of Franklin's, was one of the Company's original Directors.

The individual Leyden jar, the early form of what is now called a capacitor, gathers an electrical charge and stores it until it is discharged. Franklin grouped a number of jars into what he described as a "battery" (using the military term for weapons functioning together). By multiplying the number of holding vessels, a stronger charge could be stored, and more power would be available on discharge.

Franklin enjoyed chess, played it all of his adult life, and made frequent references to it in his writings. This 18th-century set descended in his family with the history of having belonged to him.

This pair of French shoe buckles with paste (artificial diamond) stones was a gift from Franklin to his daughter, Sally.

Court sword, or "short sword," with steel blade and silver handle worn by Franklin at the French court. It descended to his grandson Benjamin Franklin Bache, and remained in the family until it was given to The Franklin Institute in the third quarter of the 19th century.

Great Talkers, little doers.

Light purse, heavy heart.

The doors of wisdom are never shut.

He that can’t be counseled, can’t be helped.

Great Beauty, great strength, and great riches, Are really and truly of no great use; A light heart exceeds all.

Up, sluggard, and waste not life; In the grave will be sleeping enough.

Experience keeps a dear school, Yet fools will learn in no other.

A slip of the foot you may soon recover: But a slip of the tongue you may never get over.

Wink at small faults; remember thou hast great ones.
