Betsy Ross was at the Museum of the American Revolution last Thursday.

The Museum of the American Revolution, 3rd and Chestnut streets, presents Flags and Founding Documents, 1776-Today through Sept. 6.

More than 40 rare American flags are on display, along with historic documents, including early printings of state constitutions and rare printings of the Bill of Rights and the proposed U.S. Constitution of 1787.
