Description
Key West, Florida, 1950. Softcover. Near Fine. A collection of 108 black and white photographs most measuring 3.5" x 4.5" from an American military base during the Korean War. Based on a single caption it would appear that at least some of the photographs were taken at the Naval Air Station in Key West, Florida. The assemblage documents the comings and goings on the naval air base with pilots working on equipment and posing in uniform on aircraft. Also pictured are midair photos of helicopters from the Helicopter Antisubmarine Squadron 1 and aircraft carriers. Eight pictures show the wreckage in the aftermath of a plane crash. It has anecdotally been suggested these are the work of Edward Steichen, although we could find no evidence to support this. A splendid and varied group of photos showing the Navy at work.

Description
New York, 1902. [8]pp. Illustrated. Folio. Original self wrappers, stapled. Moderate staining and soiling, old folds, minor edge wear. Good condition. Illustrated with black & white photos and two maps, one of holdings in Knox County, Kentucky, the other in the East Texas Oil Belt, centered on Beaumont. The company -- miners and producers of crude lubricating and illuminating oils -- was incorporated in April, 1901, under the state laws of Delaware. This prospectus solicited investors and presented its balance sheet and current activities, listed officers, and presented the "expert opinions" of geologist Major J.W. Otley, the original surveyor of the Beaumont and other fields, as to the worthiness of the company's properties at nearby Sour Lake, Texas. No listings found on OCLC. A unique and early oil company prospectus with notable content on Kentucky and Texas oil.
