Description
Photograph of a Union Oil well gushing in Santa Fe Springs, ca.1935. The derrick is shown at center, black liquid billowing from it and filling the air with mist. Soaked ground and puddles fill the dirt in the foreground, while more derricks can be seen in the background. The photonegative identifies the well as "Union Oil Bell No. 18".
