Spectacular vtg book about the history of oil well drilling. This book has almost 900 pages and copyrighted 1905 by Charles Whiteshot. This book is loaded with old photos and the book was published at the turn of the century, so these photos would be from an even older time. Fantastic read! Great gift for the avid book collector or oil man who has everything. Doubt either would have this rare book! Book itself has no markings. The defects I see is the binding is loosening but still intact. See last picture. First few pages are detached at the top but still intact. I believe this book to be a first edition but do your own research please. Big heavy book.
