Magna Carta Goes To The Auction Block

One of only a handful of copies of the Magna Carta or "Great Charter" is going to the auction block with an expected price tag of up to $35 million. That's about a twenty times increase over its purchase price a few decades ago. Think there's a bubble in art and collectibles? There's also a global assault on many of the principals outlined in the Magna Carta. Ironically, one country whose citizens are under such pressure is the same country who created this timeless piece of human dignity.
