EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the oil shale works round Broxburn, taken by an English photographer in the 20th century. The image is part of a private collection and was originally used as an illustration for Harmsworths Business Encyclopedia and Commercial Educator in the 1920s. In this snapshot of history, we see the bustling trade and commerce that surrounded the oil industry during this time period. The works are depicted with intricate detail, showcasing various elements such as wooden scaffolds, retorts, and electrically powered machinery. These facilities were responsible for extracting crude oil from shale through a process involving ammonia and water. The scene also includes a glimpse of everyday life surrounding the industrial site. A garden bench can be seen nearby, providing workers or visitors with a place to rest amidst their busy schedules. This juxtaposition between nature and industry highlights how these two aspects coexisted during this era. Overall, this photograph offers us a window into early 20th-century business enterprises within Broxburn's oil shale industry. It serves as a reminder of our rich historical heritage while shedding light on the advancements made in trade and technology during that time period.
