1963169036Kuwait: Matba at hukumat al-kuwayt 1963. Kuwaiti oil policy in the state's earliest years First edition first printing of this rare pamphlet which is at once a statistical record of Kuwaiti oil production and a policy document arguing for oil as the key factor in the development of the country. When this pamphlet was published Kuwait had only been independent for about two years. The text is accompanied by a superb fold-out map showing the state's oil fields and the companies that ran them at the time. Following a very brief outline of Kuwait's geography climate and history the first chapter is devoted to oil production. Kuwait is named as the fourth-largest producer of oil in the world after the United States the Soviet Union and Venezuela. Subsequent sections are given over to each of the five oil companies operating on Kuwaiti territory: Kuwait Oil Company Ltd Aminoil Japan's Arabian Oil Company Shell Kuwait and Kuwait National Petroleum Company. The most expansive sections give precise information on how many fields and wells the companies ran how many barrels each field produced per year and the annual volume of exports by country with accompanying fold-out colour bar charts. The second chapter is devoted to revenues again broken down by company and details the concessions paid by the American and Japanese concerns to the state of Kuwait. The third chapter discusses Kuwaiti oil policy including the state's role in the foundation of OPEC in 1960 to avoid unilateral decreases in the price of oil as well as its commitment to train home-grown talent in the oil sector and thereby reduce dependence on foreign expertise. Octavo. With 6 black and white illustrations 3 fold-out colour bar charts fold-out colour map. Text in Arabic. Original white wrappers wire-stitched as issued lettered and illustrated in black. Wrappers nicked rear wrapper split at head and soiled along the spine fold-out map nicked. A very good copy. unknown

1927910Whiting In 1927. About very good. 119 leaves printed on rectos only; interleaved with fifteen additional leaves containing pasted brochures and ephemera. Small folio. Original half cloth and boards brad-bound; one brad lacking. Cloth worn hinges tender. Light soiling and wear to contents. Wonderful mimeographed handbook produced for and distributed to bulk station operators of Standard Oil of Indiana a subdivision of the original Standard Oil trust. Standard Oil of Indiana covered a broad territory ranging across Indiana Illinois Michigan Wisconsin Minnesota the Dakotas Iowa Kansas and Missouri. The first three leaves draw the reader in: "Stop! Look! Read! / YOU can make more money / This book show YOU how. Let's you and I read it over very carefully and see how it can help us." There follows a page discussing "What is a Salesman" and a discussion of the products Standard offers and why they're the best. Each page is printed with illustrations and a small amount of text -- easy to comprehend like a children's book and certainly designed to be used in one's sales pitch. Bulk station operators were charged with maintaining large storage tanks of gasoline or oil distributing large shipments of product to farmers and other small-scale businesses across the Midwest. This particular book belonged to agent Alf Anderson of Viroqua Wisconsin a remote village on the eastern end of the state near the borders with Iowa and Minnesota. In addition to Standard's iconic brands of fuel and motor oil such as Red Crown and Vis operators like Anderson were also charged with marketing a wide array of additional products made by Standard many of which are advertised in the brochures pasted to the additional leaves within this volume. These include Eureka Harness Oil Eureka Belt Dressing Cream Separator Lubricant Mica Axle Grease Neolite Burning Oil Perfection Kerosene KIP Insecticide and more. A mimeo production chock full of sales tactics and tips for the enterprising agent with the promise of success as reward for careful study. Rare with unique components. unknown books
