Photograph) Three Sands, Oklahoma?

(Oil Group Panorama)

N.p., 1920. Soft cover. Very Good+. Item #0711292

Not a book. Original photograph, 8" x 33" including margins. ca early 1920s. Slightly sepia toned. A vivid photo of what we strongly believe to be, from our research in Okla books with oil photos, oil rig types, and also surrounding landscape, a portion of the famous Three Sands, Oklahoma, field that was located between Tonkawa & Blackwell. On back of photo in pencil is simply written "Oklahoma". This panorama is not of the whole field, but a street corner close-up of several buildings, derricks, cars, piping, etc., & a group of around 50 men facing the camera. In very good condition with five creases along the upper margin that barely intrude into the image. There are just a few tiny blanks in the emulsion. One guy has a black ink spot covering a small section of his pants. Outside of museums, we presume these types of photos are rare. ca 1920's.

Price: $273.00
