Peter Force for Lord Mahon's Declaration of Independence

Description

PETER FORCE (LONDON) COPY
Peter Force for Lord Mahon's Declaration of Independence
The Declaration of Independence printed by Peter Force for the inclusion in his Lord Mahon’s Notes on the Declaration of Independence, in London 1855. It measures 15 ¾ by 17 ¾ respectfully.  The copy folded for inclusion in the book, and this print is rare, perhaps being that not many survived across the sea in Britain.  How many came to America, is not known, nor do we know how many actually were printed or distributed.  Due to its smaller size, this print may readily not be recognized.sonian Contributions to Knowledge, Vol. VIII). These minor works perhaps are of interest merely to the antiquarian, but the American Archives are still indispensable to every student of the American Revolution.
