Unpublished Ben Franklin letters

[greenacres]

I bought this newspaper from 1886 along time ago. I bought it to frame, and of course I never got to it. I bought for the hidtory. Is there any value in It? Would it be a geographic thing only? Or would people in general be interested? Is it even worth anything? I don't remember what I paid for it.

My paper really doesn't report anything of interest so not that desirable. Judging from the amount of Ben Franklin items on eBay, I'm guessing there are Franklin collectors out there so yours probably is desirable and not just regionally.  Here's a bit on the company which you probably already know:
