Statue of Benjamin Franklin accompanied by following text: "Above: Statesman, scientist, printer and writer Benjamin Franklin, cast in bronze by George Lundeen, at headquarters of the Printing Industries of America in Alexandria, Virginia.; Previous page: In the 1940s and 1950s, children who lived in this leafy and historic section of Lafayette, Indiana -- among them, Brian Lamb-- dubbed this bridge which links two neighborhoods, 'the bicycle bridge.' Crossing it held the promise of undiscovered lands for adventurous children and gave the author a lifelong metaphor for the learning experience."
