Boasting an impressive resume, Benjamin Franklin seemed to dabble in anything and everything. Not only was he instrumental in founding the United States, but he was an accomplished scientist, musician, author, and inventor. In 1775 when the US Postal Service was established Franklin presided as the first Postmaster General, and his portrait would eventually be featured on numerous postage stamps. Always a champion of free speech and equal rights, Franklin also published a series of papers on the importance of the abolition of slavery. Scott 2779 Ben Franklin
