Entire issues offered. Daubrée's paper: pp. 733-39 864-69 a. 928-931. <br/><br/><em>First apperance of this classic paper in experimental geology."Gabriel Daubrée describes the apparatus and results of experiments simulating the folding and faulting of strata through the exertion of horizontal and vertical pressures on beds of wax or metal. Daubrée finds that fairly uniform folds form when homogenous beds under spatially uniform vertical pressures are subjected to sufficient horizontal pressure the amount of the pressure indfluencing the number and shape of the folds. Continued pressurein such a case results in a regular series of synclines and anticlines. By contrast spatial nonuniformities in the bed thickness or in the vertical pressure can produce marked asymmetries in the resulting folds with for instnace fewer folds in regions of greater vertical pressure."Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1878. </em> unknown

195179273Los Angeles 1951. The 24-page original typescript includes 16 tipped-in original black-and-white photographs two elevation charts and a map.<br /> <br /> Arnold was hired by Jack Leland to study reports and maps of the Mecca Hills Anticline and conduct a field inspection providing his opinion of the oil and gas possibilities of the rock formations. On page three of the report underlined in red is his comment: “This structure is ideal for oil and gas accumulation.†He further states: “from the evidence it is clear that oil exists in the general area of the north end of the Imperial Valley.â€<br /> <br /> The Mecca Hills Anticline is now in a protected reserve. Established in 1994 the U.S. Bureau of Land Management manages the 26356-acre Mecca Hills Wilderness. The area includes narrow steep-walled canyons that create a natural maze within the badlands. Uniquely faulted and folded geologic formations are the result of activity on the local sections of the San Andreas Fault making the Mecca Hills one of the more unusual geological sites of this kind. Located in Riverside County Mecca is a desert community on the north shore of the Salton Sea in the Eastern Coachella Valley and is surrounded by agricultural land with a population of approximately 8000 residents.<br /> <br /> Bound with brads in black leatherette wrappers. The contents are a little toned and the photographs once affixed with glue are now loose but all present. unknown
