EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of California's Summerland, a coastal town near Santa Barbara, where oil is extracted from beneath the ocean's bed. Taken by an American photographer in the 19th century, this image showcases the historical significance of oil pumping in this region. The photograph is part of a private collection and was featured as an illustration in "A Picture Journey Through California" published by Sunset Press with cooperation from Southern Pacific Company around 1927. The picture provides a glimpse into early 20th-century America, specifically capturing the spirit of the 1920s. In this view, we witness the sight of workers diligently extracting oil from beneath the ocean floor. This image serves as a testament to California's rich history and its role as one of America's leading oil producers during that era. The photo also offers insight into early twentieth-century life with glimpses of furniture and bedding seen in the background. It represents not only an important industrial process but also provides us with a snapshot of daily life during that time period. With its historical significance and artistic composition, this photograph transports us back to a pivotal moment in American history when industries like oil extraction shaped both landscapes and livelihoods.
