A snapshot photograph of oil wells near Hollywood, Los Angeles, California, ca. 1910. The image is taken from a field looking into the distance at a field of several dozen derricks and associated structures, perhaps in the La Brea field. On the reverse, in pencil is "Santa" crossed out and then "Hollywood / Oil Fields." With some soiling, bits of album paper residue and a crease at the upper left corner, the overall condition is good.
