content: From card: "Bottle with low rim, constricted orifice. Faded deco., 4 black-circled dots. This vessel was considered missing for many years: two vessels were discovered in 1984 with 1490 on them, although the catalog card for 1490 only lists one item. One of the two vessels had 1490 lettered over the faded original no. Under UV light this orig. no. was determined to be 1491. 8/24/84 Camille Juliana Processing Lab Intern".
