This undated photo provided by Sotheby's shows the title page of a recently discovered copy of Benjamin Franklin's "Poor Richard" Almanac from 1733. One of the most significant publications in American history, it was auctioned by Sotheby's for $556,500, more than three times the high estimate of $150,000 and the second highest price ever paid for any book printed in America.
