It has some very high-quality scans from both MSS and early printed Haggadot. See also this site from the Yale University Library and this one from the Hebrew Union College. I also just saw a new book on the topic, Illuminated Haggadot from Medieval Spain: Biblical Imagery And the Passover Holiday, or you can read an article by the author here. If you have $850 to spend and wanted to bring a very nice gift if you are being hosted for a seder you can buy this.
