19361182Los Angeles: Brooks Bros 1936. Very good plus. Blueprint map 21.5 x 18.25 inches. Old fold lines minor wear. A few pencil annotations. An interesting and quite attractive blueprint map that shows the oil and gas fields of New Mexico where oil was first discovered in 1924. The map was compiled and drawn by Fabius and Sam Brooks Los Angeles publishers and was based on a 1931 map by Dean Winchester and "corrected to date" likely in the mid-1930s. The map shows the locations of oil and gas fields across the state and delineates sites of oil drilling their proprietors and the depths at which they hit oil or gas. Also included are the routes of major gas and oil pipelines. At the lower left corner of the map is a list of principal lease holders in New Mexico broken into tiers by acreage with Standard Oil holding over a million acres and the next group holding 100000 to 500000 each down to 5000 individuals and small companies who hold anywhere from 40 to 5000 acres. We locate a handful of copies of the Winchester map and one copy of a later dated Brooks map with a different title but none of the present issue. A highly attractive and informative New Mexico oil map. Brooks Bros unknown books
289 pages including index and bibliography. Describes how the emergence and evolution of the Brazillian oil industry, from its tentative beginnings late in the nineteenth century to its maturity in 1970, were largely influenced by misinformed and manipulated public opinion. A study of how scarcity of capital and expertise, so characteristic of an underdeveloped country, and the nationalism equally characteristic of such countries in the mid-twentieth century, interacted with the facts of geology to produce a result unique to Brazil. The first attempt at an objective assessment of the results of Brazils's experience in the oil industry. Book clean and unmarked with light to moderate wear. Dust jacket remains attractive with average wear and two half-inch tears. Binding sound. Book

1952217461952. Oil Extraction and Oil Well Fires in South Texas. Three silver gelatin black-and-white photographic prints including one gelatin silver press photo 8 x 10 in. and two photo prints from negatives 5 x 7 in. Dated 1952 and 1954. Content includes an image of a wildcat rig in Lavaca County Texas and dramatic scenes of oil well fires. All photos with extensive manuscript notations on verso including references to press filing. This small but gripping photo archive documents the volatility and danger of oil drilling operations in mid-century South Texas including one catastrophic blowout and fire. The 8 x 10 inch silver gelatin press photograph dated June 1954 and stamped "RETURN TO CHRONICLE FILES" shows a towering oil derrick rising above dense trees. The reverse identifies the location as Lavaca County and describes a wildcat operation in Hallettsville Texas where drilling reached 8000 feet. A hand-written note reads "Field Drilling Co. Ext. Exterior - cementing protective casing 10240 down to 8000 ft - Lavaca County 2 1/2 mi. N. Hallettsville."<br /> <br /> The two smaller prints-captioned in manuscript as "Oil Well Fires"-capture the momentous force of an uncontrolled eruption. One image shows a roiling column of black smoke and flame rising from a well site surrounded by distant silhouettes of onlookers. Another more closely framed emphasizes the explosive power as the plume expands over nearby treetops. A note on the verso dates one of these prints to October 1952 stating it is a "Print from Studio of late Cecil Thomson." Cecil Thomson 1881-1953 was a prolific Houston-based commercial photographer and photojournalist who operated Thomson Studio a major supplier of images to regional newspapers including the Houston Post and Houston Chronicle. His studio active from 1909 until his death in 1963 continued producing prints posthumously from its extensive negative archive making it likely these fire images were developed and distributed under the studio's imprint even if not taken by Thomson personally.<br /> <br /> All three photos are from the Houston Chronicle archives with two stamped or inscribed "Return to Chronicle Morgue." One image includes the notation "Sunday Oil - Lavaca County Wildcat." These images preserve both the ambition and peril of mid-century oil operations in Texas a period when wildcat drilling fueled economic speculation and technological innovation often with great human and environmental risk. Surface creases and light wear to edges; verso of each image shows editorial markings and annotations in grease pencil and ink. Overall very good condition. A vivid visual record of the oil industry's volatility in 1950s Texas with provenance from the Houston Chronicle press files. unknown
