There is an authenticated Dunlap Broadside (not listed in this article) held by the Westchester County (NY) Archives in Elmsford, NY. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.59.140.245 (talk) 12:45, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
My quick search revealed no Dunlap Broadsides in the Westchester County Archives, but they do have one of 4 known Holt Broadsides. [1] Someday I'll add a section about the Holt Broadside, unless someone beats me to it, which I hope they do. —KevinMyers08:09, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
There's an authenticated Dunlap Broadside (like above, not currently listed) currently held in Olin Library at Washington University in St. Louis. Previously owned by the family of Eric P. Newman [2]. Doubtful this is the "private collector" currently listed, as the illustration in the source says it was "sold recently," whereas this copy was owned by the previous owners for 60 years [3]. Can anyone verify if this one is already listed under a different description? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:600:A27F:DFF8:78F0:5A7C:CCF0:FCB9 (talk) 20:01, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Is there any rhyme or reason to the # next to the copy of the broadside in the table listing them all? If it's order of discovery, I'd expect a date somewhere. Additionally, if it is by order of discovery, the line preceding the table is contradictory: "There were 24 known copies of the Dunlap broadside in 1989, when a 25th broadside was discovered behind a painting bought for four dollars at a flea market" because the 25th it mentions is listed as #23 in the table.

There's no mention on this page of the modern history of the Declaration of Independence since the 1800s. I'd consider that pretty important to be talked about on Wikipedia, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. It it on a different page? If so, it should probably be linked on this one.Yitz (talk) 18:16, 22 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The information is here in the section called the Matlack Declaration (the document people usually have in mind when they refer to the DoI as a document), listing events up to 2003. Kevin1776 (talk) 20:35, 22 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
