from U.S. National Archives

  Your copy of the Magna Carta is older than the one we have on display in our Australian Parliament House. Ours is from 1297: www.aph.gov.au/senate/pubs/occa_lect/flyers/171097.htm Likewise, we hold and display it as a celebration of democracy and the rule of law.

• The U.S. National Archives said:

  Very interesting! We currently display a 1297 copy of the Magna Carta, also. The U.S. National Archives doesn't own a copy of the Magna Carta. The 1297 Magna Carta we have on display is generously loaned to us by David M. Rubenstein. He has loaned it to us since 2008: www.archives.gov/press/press-releases/2008/nr08-71.html. Here's a 1965 Time magazine article that mentions the National Archives display of the 1225 Magna Carta: www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,834363-1,00.html This article on the U.S. Capitol Historical Society site mentions that this 1225 copy was on loan from the British Government in 1965: uschscapitolhistory.uschs.org/articles/uschs_articles-08.htm Thanks!
