B Free Franklin Post Office & Museum

|
Commemorates Franklin's 1775 appointment as first postmaster general. The only post office operated by the US Postal Service that does not fly the American flag, it is named after Franklin's unique signature. It is assumed that his use of Free as part of his signature referred to America's struggle for freedom. Philatelists prize the hand-canceled letters from this post office. Open daily 9am-5pm; closed January 1 and December 25. Free to the public.
