The Miracle Acres of California, Huntington Beach, Long Beach and Santa Fe Springs, in the order of their discovery, have proved the phenomenal producers in California's oil history. Their production has been exceeded by other fields, but for rapid development from first production to huge output, rank second to none in oil history. This combined with the fact that the oil is produced from acreage insignificant in comparison with other fields, which represent large output, places the three fields in a class that will probably not be duplicated again.
