Visitors will see manuscripts, letters, first-edition books, and other items. The closing date has been scheduled for November 22nd.

Here’s more about this display: “Highlights of the exhibit include several recently discovered items never before shown in a public exhibition. Most notable is the only known manuscript copy of The Conqueror Worm, generally regarded as one of Poe’s best and bleakest poems. This copy was thought lost until its rediscovery in 2013.”
