I'd be writing on the bottom that the document was a reproduction though.
I agree with your sentiment Byron. Writing on the bottom or top (or preferably across the middle) would, probably I think, (advisable to use a stamp and a date and check with a lawyer first) get a person using one of these around being accused of falsifying a document in some cases (but not necessarily all). I cant advise this, for anyone thinking of this, off their own back, I would say check your actions with a lawyer first! Falsifying documents, is not a cool thing, even by accident, as the last sentence of Byrons post clearly recognises.

However, more effectively, it may be possible, with a heap of time and effort, and probably money, that if a vehicle has so much of a traceable paper (and other) record that it is clear that the recreation of the document is absolutely accurate, and unquestionably belonged to that vehicle, to get a reproduced document certified by either, the RTA in your state, a dealer, or a legal firm, or perhaps, even, Holdens - in which case it would become a legitimate document, which is a much cooler thing to have. (Probably would still have some sort of stamp on it though), but that just becomes part of the vehicles official history anyway. I do belive that this may in some cases be possible, but I imagine its work that would consume several years of effort and effective communication. Even then placing replicated signatures on it is of course not likely to be possible, unless one is able to find the person who signed the original and agrees to signing the recreated and affirmed document. Perhaps you can!

However were it me, I'd be leaving those spaces blank if I was considering any attempt on this sort of historical document replication.
