https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6unrtK1GSQ Jul 3, 2018 The original signed (or "engrossed") Declaration is on permanent display at the National Archives, but when independence was declared, most colonists saw a document that we now call the Dunlap Broadside. Broadsides—large pieces of paper printed to be posted in public spaces—were a common way for spreading news during the eighteenth century.   The Dunlap Broadsides were printed by John Dunlap, a Philadelphia printer who eventually became the official printer to Congress in 1778. On the night of July 4, 1776, Dunlap printed the first public and published version of the Declaration. The exact number Dunlap printed is unknown, but is estimated to be around 100 to 200—enough to comply with Congress’s orders that the copies be distributed among the new states and troops, read aloud, and posted in public areas. Only 26 copies are known to have survived.

When the new encasements were returned to the Rotunda in 2003, the National Institute for Standards and Technology estimated that they will stay sealed for close to 100 years. US National Archives
