Lesser-known facts: President Ford is the only president with his library and museum in two separate locations, although both are within his home state of Michigan. Although most of the museum's artifacts date from the 20th century, there are two much older items in the collections: an 18th -century printing press purportedly used by Benjamin Franklin, and a 1st or 2nd Century C.E. Roman vessel, both gifts of heads of state.
