Notes:
The original negative number is 2954, but that negative has been lost. The printing press is difficult to see because it is in a glass exhibit case and there is a great amount of reflection of nearby exhibits on the glass.
Summary:
The Franklin Printing Press on display in the Historic and Personal Relics Exhibit in the United States National Museum, now the Arts and Industries Building. Ceramics can be seen in a nearby exhibit case.
