Special mention must also be made of the addition made to this collection of a bottle of pure Attar of Rose. This bottle contains about 3/4 of a pint of attar, being originally presented to the U.S. Government in 1840 by the Iman of Mouscat. For many years it had been in the vault of the East room of the office of the Treasurer of the United States. In March 1887, it was transferred to the Museum for public exhibition and may now be seen among the specimens of materia medica.
