Interesting. So, all the costs since 1984 would have been paid by us taxpayers - exhibiting - maintaining temp/humidity, security, insurance, transport, and personnel salaries - guards and the like. And, perhaps that is somehow transferable to the Perot Foundation to deduct from the gain?

All you mention is more than offset by the opportunity to exhibit such a rare document. I'm certain the National Archives was very pleased to have the opportunity. It's like having the Pieta temporarily on display in your art museum.
