Museum Store Reproduction
[Declaration of Independence]. This copy is 11 ¾ x 14 ¾. Note that any copies that have this handwritten appearance, and are under 20 x 30”, are reproductions. Many of the larger size copies are as well, but there we have to be careful, as there are some quite valuable full size early reproductions, like the Stone and Force printings shown above. We do not sell these reproductions.
