It serves a purposes, although not what most Baha'is think it to be. I'm not sure what you mean by "originals". Revelation writing was <a href="http://www.bahaullah.org/tablets/revelation-writing/" rel="nofollow">illegible squiggles</a> to all but Baha'u'llah's amanuensis. And even he couldn't read it sometimes! We do have originals written by the Bab's own hand and Baha'u'llah also (as well as the Master). They are on display in the Archives and in a secure bunker-like archive underground underneath. In any case, only those who read Arabic and Farsi could read the originals.

Does anyone have the answer to why there requires an AO? How about where Baha'u'llah wrote something to the effect, "My people shall call themselves Bahai"? Does anyone know why the actual writings are not published in originals, you know actual photo copies? Thank you Baquia for posting this link.
