EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1920s, capturing a pivotal moment in California's history. The image showcases the iconic oil wells on Signal Hill, Long Beach, which became synonymous with the state's booming petroleum industry during this era. The photograph offers a glimpse into the early days of drilling and exploration, as towering derricks dominate the landscape against a backdrop of clear blue skies. These impressive structures symbolize both progress and ambition as they extract precious resources from deep within the earth.

This groundbreaking event marked a turning point for American industry and set off an unprecedented wave of growth and prosperity throughout the region. As we admire this historical snapshot, we are reminded of how these oil wells played a vital role in shaping not only California but also America's energy landscape.
