There was a museum with some of Thomas Jefferson's real artifacts, but there were also some copies. The writing desk is a replica of the desk on which he wrote the Declaration of Independence. Also, the documents are all copies. The original Declaration is on display in the National Archives in D.C.
I want to see the original manuscript of the drafts of the Declaration of Independence. The issue of slavery was mentioned in the draft of the Declaration, but was taken out in the editing process to help the document gain favor with more delegates/people. I want to know more about this.
