About this event
In the years leading up to the Revolution, cartoons, newspapers, broadsides, and pamphlets created by patriots like Benjamin Franklin, Paul Revere, and Thomas Paine helped unsettle American loyalty to King George III and fueled the colonial Americans’ desire for independence. Stop by our reproduction eighteenth-century printing press to understand the historical connections between technology, communication, and democracy.
