Smithsonian Archives Fair will look at artifacts, preservation - The
Washington Post
id you hear about the guy who found a copy of the Magna Carta folded inside
his uncle’s high school yearbook and brought it to the Smithsonian’s
Archives Fair last year?
No, of course you didn’t, for that did not happen. But that’s not to say
there weren’t treasures all the same, beloved bits of personal history
presented to Smithsonian archivists for comment and advice. For what would
be more priceless to you: a moldy bit of parchment curtailing the powers of
a 13th-century king or some irreplaceable photographs of your grandfather
dressed in the uniform he wore on D-Day?
