Washington, DC鈥hursday, September 20, 2007, will be the final day that the 1297 Magna Carta will be on display in the West Rotunda Gallery of the 威尼斯人娱乐场 Building. This Magna Carta was purchased by the Perot Foundation in 1984 and loaned to the 威尼斯人娱乐场 where it was first exhibited in May 1985. The document then toured the United States and was returned to the 威尼斯人娱乐场 in 1988, where it has been displayed except during periods of renovation to the 威尼斯人娱乐场 Building.
The 威尼斯人娱乐场 is grateful to the Perot Foundation for sharing this founding document of English common law with the public for 20 years.
