David Hall
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
52mm x 28mm, 1762
David Hall was an active partner in several of Benjamin Franklin's business ventures 1748-1766. After serving an apprenticeship with William Strachan, a London printer and part-owner of the London Chronicle, as well as friend and correspondent to Franklin, he was hired by Franklin (1744) to serve in his printshop, eventually becoming foreman. In 1748 Franklin, ready to retire from his commercial ventures, turned his operations over to Hall in a partnership that gave Hall control of a "successful, vertically integrated media conglomerate" (printing, publishing, bookselling, news and postal service), and Franklin a princely share of profits and time to engage in his various scientific and diplomatic vocations. This label is from a volume sold by Hall in 1762 or '63.
