I remember reading a story about that. But you have to realize that the original 'official' copy of the Declaration was sent to King George III. That was the whole purpose of it, to declare our independence from him. I'm not sure what happened to that one. He might have just tossed it in the wastebasket. 8^)

It was one of only two "original copies." It was behind a painting. Yes, it's true. I think he paid a dollar for it.
