Description

A black and white photograph of a field during a blowout (likely Atlantic #3 Blowout), featuring an area of muddy ground that takes up the middle and bottom of the image. To the centre-left of the image are three areas of vigorously boiling liquid mud, with another area of billing to the right further back. In the centre background are three silos, with one building to their left and multiple buildings to their right. On the reverse in blue ballpoint is written "FROM W.I. COLLECTION; F. ALMOND", and in pencil "Atlantic #3?". The photo is not dated, but if this is indeed the Atlantic #3 blowout, then it is likely dated to between 8 March and 6 September, 1948.
