The Ransom Center is a great place for a quick visit while touring the University of Texas. While there, I saw the first discovered photograph, an original Gutenberg Bible, and original manuscripts by dozens of authors, including Lewis Carroll and many more. It is not a huge center, but excellent for its size. more
