Description
Photograph of an exterior view of an unidentified oil refinery, ca.1940. Two thick, cylindrical structures with ladders leading up their left sides stand in a bare field at center while a pile of long, metal pipes and a small, wooden structure stand along the side of a paved road in the foreground. Many small cylinders lie on their sides in a row in front of a skeletal building on the right while tall pipes stand among the buildings on the left. Similar buildings and machinery extend towards the background where a faint city can be seen in the distance.
