RIP Ben Franklin

#1 Post by jarnon » Wed Apr 05, 2017 7:44 am

Legendary Ben Franklin impersonator Ralph Archbold dies

I've seen Mr. Archbold as Ben Franklin, and I once heard him speak as himself. At the time, he was much younger and needed lots of makeup to look Franklin's age.

For the record, the original Benjamin Franklin has been dead for 227 years.
