Description
FOREST OF OIL DERRICKS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA OIL FIELD
Color: Black; White
A photograph of three men stnading near a forest of oil derricks in a southern California field, 1920s. The image shows the three men standing at the far right on a dirt berm next to a dirt road, which is in the foreground. Next to the men is some wood fencing. In the background, at a lower elevation than the foreground, is a forest of dozens and dozens of oil derricks, although a hazy atmosphere prevents a clear view of how far back the derricks reach. At the upper left of the reverse is a penciled number "4." There are six other photographs of oil fields in this accession. With soiling, creases, residue of mounting corners, stains, and fingerprints marks, the general condition is good.
