You don’t need to travel very long in Pennsylvania before discovering the historic markers (AKA “blue signs”) that are found everywhere from Philly to Erie and many points in between. This tour visits the gravesites of people who earned their place on Pennsylvania’s blue signs: the pioneering photographer who took the first selfie, the Arctic explorer who was one of the most famous men of the mid-19th century, the Founding Father who made an invaluable contribution to astronomy, and many more.
