The stamp was issued on the 250th anniversary of Franklin’s birth. West’s painting was completed in 1805. Whether or not Franklin actually flew a kite in a lightning storm is disputed, although he definitely wrote about it. Franklin made a life-long study of electricity. He invented the lightning rod and made other notable advances. Powered By 3Dsellers.com - Try for Free!
