Rare national archives are on public display at USC for America's 250th anniversary
""In these times right now we're in, there's a lot of value in the documents and interpreting them in the way they're supposed to be interpreted," Phil said."
""It validates what we should've followed in the first place," Jean said."
""We have the infrastructure, and we have the staff to be able to live up to the rigorous standards," Montagano said."
"The exhibit is being transported around the county on a specially equipped 'Freedom Plane,' which was greeted by a brass and drum welcome from the USC marching band."
A Boeing 737 transported original founding documents, including the Declaration of Independence, to USC's Fisher Museum as part of the National Archives' 250th anniversary celebration. The exhibit features 16 rare documents displayed under controlled conditions. Visitors expressed appreciation for the historical significance of the documents. USC is the only university hosting the exhibit, which is carefully prepared to meet rigorous standards. The documents were transported in degradation-safe cases and welcomed by the USC marching band upon arrival.
