Description

"1929 Oil Bradstreet and Mining Directory of California / Buyer's Guide," published by Financial News Publishing Company, Los Angeles. Contents include listings of oil companies, generally including the address, principals, stock amounts, and, in many cases, well information. Among these are the M. K. & T. and Talbert companies, in which Walter Temple was invested, and his own Walter P. Temple Oil Company. Also included are lists of mining companies, the buyer's guide, members of stock exchanges, and statistics for oil production and mining production. With detached wrappers which are badly worn and pages that are stained and stiff, the overall condition is poor.
