Heading to New York City this holiday season? Be sure to stop by The Morgan Library & Museum for a chance to see Charles Dickens' original manuscript of "A Christmas Carol," which will be on display from Nov. 20 through Jan. 13.

From The Morgan:

Every holiday season, the Morgan displays Charles Dickens’s original manuscript of A Christmas Carol in Pierpont Morgan’s historic Library. Dickens wrote his iconic tale in a six-week flurry of activity, beginning in October 1843 and ending in time for Christmas publication. He had the manuscript bound in red morocco as a gift for his solicitor, Thomas Mitton. The manuscript then passed through several owners before Pierpont Morgan acquired it in the 1890s.
