Hmmm, shades of “National Treasure”:
Possible Declaration of Independence copy found in Alabama
AP Wire | 07/05/2005
“MONTGOMERY, Ala. – This much is certain: Janice Burks has a copy of the Declaration of Independence, which her late husband said he found in a hidden compartment in a box he bought in Philadelphia decades ago.
Past that, the truths are not exactly self-evident.
The document may be one of the earliest known copies of the nation’s founding document, a valuable treasure that turned up unexpectedly in an out-of-the-way part of Alabama. Or it could be a clever fake crafted not too many years ago.”
