Comments: Magna Carta at Fraunces Tavern Museum until Dec. 15

Great historical treasures indeed, but I guess these documents looks to be kind of unprotected, that´s certainly weird to me considering their individual importance

New Yorkology - thanks for telling the public about Magna Carta in New York. We appreciate it.
And to your reader, Jaco, please be assured, the documents are well cared for, especially Magna Carta, whose atmospherically controlled, UV protected, alarmed and touch-sensitive case alone cost $70,000 and is presided over 24/7 by armed guards.

Last time I was at the Fraunces Tavern museum it was only three bucks, that's quite a jump to ten but maybe it's just for this Magna Carta display.
