Anthon transcript; forgeries
-
Various descriptions and reproductions of the “Anthon Transcript” are examined. Bachman concludes that the document found by Mark Hofmann in a Smith family Bible is probably the original. Reproductions of the “Whitmer Text,” “the 1844 placard stick of Joseph,” and “The Hofmann document” also appear in the article. (Editor’s note: the “Hofmann document” has since been proven a forgery).
