The University of Texas at Austin keeps books like that in the humanities
research center. If you have a library card, you can see rare documents.
They'll give you white gloves, set you down with a desk with padded book
rests, and let you look. I just came from an A&S competition where one lady
was displaying a bound book, based directly off one she had handled at a
local university. Museum curators are generally approachable about looking
at manuscripts and things as well. Most places you can arrange for a
private showing.
