  • This is a fun free activity for tourists staffed by the National Parks Service. The staff puts on a great demonstration, in fun costumes, with an old-fashioned printing press. Overall, I highly recommend it for any tourists in Philadelphia.
  • Very inspiring, there are many interesting facts and expositions, I loved to see Glass Armonika, printing devices at that time, quotes and little stories. engravings in Franklin Court
