Description

"Geological Notes on Oil Structures," Edward Allison Hill (San Francisco: Hall-Gutstadt Company, Publishers,) 1922. The work is a technical discussion on shales, identifying and determining the age of structures, a summary and discussion of probable new fields in California and elsewhere in the United States, and other information. There are several pasted-in photograph illustrations of geological structures and of the author. With fading to the cover ink, wrinkling of the faux leather, some acid burns on pages, and a musty smell from tobacco smoke, the overall condition is fair.
