Among these works are the original map of the Lewis and Clark expedition, James Joyce's proof sheets to 'Anna Livia Plurabelle', a song printed on papyrus from the second-century Roman Empire, the Voynich manuscript, a poem-painting by Susan Howe, Langston Hughes's 'Montage of a Dream Deferred' in original manuscript form, and many others.
