<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scottishmoney, post: 7842980, member: 12789&quot;]Ben Franklin was a printer, but not a signer.&nbsp; But even with the notes with his imprint on them - the only ones that he actually printed are the ones from before ca. 1750 when he ran the business as a sole proprietor.&nbsp; After then he was in a partnership with David Hall and Hall ran the business as Franklin left the colonies for London and returned in 1760 when he sold his share of the business to William Sellers.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/64/Charles_Willson_Peale_-_Anne_Catharine_Hoof_Green_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg/800px-Charles_Willson_Peale_-_Anne_Catharine_Hoof_Green_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Your top note that is from Maryland was printed by A.C. Green - Anne Catherine Green, one of the very very few women running a business of any kind in the colonies during that time.&nbsp; In a lot of ways her story and those of other printers are not much less interesting than Franklins&#039;.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
