If you're in Richmond, I highly recommend a visit to the Virginia Historical Society at 428 North Boulevard.
In addition to special exhibits, the Society's collections "consist of a wide range of objects, including books and bound serials, Confederate imprints, sheet music, broadsides, newspapers, family and personal papers, business and organizational records, genealogical materials, maps, paintings, prints, postcards, weapons, militaria, glass plate negatives, and 19th - 21st century photographs."
You can search the catalog of the Society's collections by keyword(s) here. Library materials can only be examined in the Society's reading room. An appointment or prior notification is not needed.
