Description
Photograph of wooden oil derricks at the Santa Fe Springs Oil Field, ca.1932. Several rows of oilrigs stand over a plot of land, and a small crowd of people gathers in front of a stack of pipes at the base in the foreground beside a few parked automobiles. A line of tanks in various sizes sits left of the center oil derricks, and several structures and equipment surround its base. A dirt road runs in front of the derricks and another crosses it and makes its way down a row at right, where a plume of smoke sprouts from a smoke stack.
