Shortly after the new library opened its doors to the public, dignitaries gathered there again to honor the internationally-recognized role of the institution as a steward of medical history. Near the library, they planted a cutting of an Oriental plane tree descended from the original 'Tree of Hippocrates,' located on the island of Kos in Greece, under which, according to legend, Hippocrates taught a new kind of medicine to eager students in the 5th century BCE. Pictured here, taking his turn at planting the tree, is John B. Blake, PhD, Chief of the History of Medicine Division of the library. Blake supervised the return of the library's History of Medicine collection from Cleveland to the new library building in Bethesda. Lloyd's of London insured the collection for $6 million, and Pinkerton guards escorted it at every turn."Related Title(s):US National Library of MedicineExtent:1 photograph : 26 x 21 cmTechnique:black and whiteNLM Unique ID:101445727NLM Image ID:A017140Permanent Link:resource.nlm.nih.gov/101445727 |
