réf. PA99Oblong Quarto album ca. 19x255 cm 7 ½ x 10 in. 14 card stock leaves. With 36 mounted gelatin silver photos of various size including six large images from ca. 15x20 cm 6x8 in; the rest of the photos are from ca. 12x16 cm 4 ¾ x 6 ½ in to ca. 8x105 cm 3 ¼ x 4 in. Two photos with period pencil or ink captions on the mounts. With nine mounted period magazine or newspaper clippings each ca. 7x95 cm 2 ¾ x 3 ¾ in. Original black half morocco with cloth boards neatly rebacked in style with black morocco; original endpapers. A few photos mildly faded or with mild silvering but overall a very good album of interesting photographs. Historically significant album with early original photos of the properties and operations of the “Assam Oil Company” near Digboi north-eastern Assam known as the birthplace of the oil industry in India. Oil was first discovered in the area in the 1860s and the first oil production began near modern-day Digboi in 1889. “Assam Oil Company” was formed in 1899 and developed oil deposits in Digboi and Makum opening the refinery at Digboi in 1901. It became the first oil refinery in Asia and still operates today. The company was closely associated with the “Assam Railway and Trading Co.” which connected its oil fields and processing facilities to the rest of Assam. In 1921 the properties of the “Assam Oil Company” were sold to the “Burmah Oil Company;” it now belongs to the “Indian Oil Corporation Ltd.” The album opens with a group portrait of European associates of the company captioned “Assam Oil Co.” One of the people on the photo captioned “Eric” is most likely the album’s compiler. Six large photos show the company settlement in Digboi with bungalows and residential houses of European and native workers oil reservoirs and a railway track. There are also interesting views of an oil derrick under construction railway tracks and an approaching train most likely of the “Assam Railway and Trading Co.” exterior and interior of a residential building an area of cleared forest Assam villages native families children &c. Three other photos portray “Eric” posing with his friends in an Assam village and jungle. Nine magazine or newspaper clippings reproduce photos with printed captions of the construction of an oil derrick transportation of a Brennan boiler elephants at work and a general view of the Digboi Refinery. One of the photos pictures one “E.B. Richards” mounted on an elephant who could possibly be “Eric” from the original photos. Overall an interesting early original source on the history of the Digboi oil industry. hardcover

Binding slightly worn with mild damp stains on the right margin of the front board one page detached several photos age-toned and with mild silvering but overall a very good album with strong interesting photos. Historically significant album of rare original gelatin silver photographs taken and collected during the Nordvik-Khatanga Soviet Oil Exploration Expedition in 1939-1940. The compiler took part in the expedition together with his wife “Sonkes” who according to the photographs was head of a tailor's workshop at the expedition base camp in Nordvik. Neither reports nor official photographs from the expedition were found through our research of digital archives and libraries. The expedition organized by the USSR’s Main Directorate of the Northern Sea Route at the onset of WWII aimed to study the oil potential of Nordvik Bay. A team of polar explorers set sail from Arkhangelsk on a steamship accompanied by a cargo convoy and powerful icebreakers. Navigating through the Yugorsky Shar Strait the expedition made several stops at Dixon Melyuskin and Vstrechny Islands before establishing its base in Nordvik Bay. Despite extensive operations drilling at Nordvik over the next seasons proved largely unsuccessful revealing only small oil pockets with little commercial value. The album contains 130 lively vernacular photographs from the 1939-1940 expedition including eight well-executed photos of the expedition base camp and its premises the general view of the settlement main street local bathhouse and canteen. About ten photographs portray construction works as the team members attempted to build rotor No. 2. The images depict the site of the rotor “the beginning of the work” workers pulling out a tankette from snow digging and using special equipment. There are also about a dozen photographs showing the general view of rotor No. 1 - “the first in the world in Arctic conditions” “a boiler room for rotor No. 1” “a rotor drilling rig No. 1 with machinery room” “steam winch 250 hp for rotor No. 1” “oil drilling rigs” “general view of a coal mine” etc. At least forty lively candid photographs show the expedition members mostly the compiler and his wife sewing at a tailor’s workshop resting after work feeding dogs and posing by a tankette on sleds in tents at a meteorological station by the storage room near the assembly crane etc. Especially interesting are five photos of a fire at a local hospital documenting the funeral of deceased polar explorers and the compiler standing solemnly beside the victims’ camp. There are also about ten candid individual and group portraits of local Yakuts showing “Sonkes with a young Yakut woman” “Yakut Family and Sonkes” “Yakut Man with a Purchase” young Yakut women in a school reading books and Yakut fishermen posing by their camp. The other interesting photos portray the expedition members at the October and May rallies with “Sonkes” clearly visible in the crowd four and two-engine seaplanes at Cape Kosisty “bird market on Vstrechny Island” steamships “Stalingrad” “Dixon” etc. and icebreakers “Ermak” “Litke” etc. from the expedition etc. The album closes with the general views of the bank of the Khatanga River the town Igarka and the Krasnoyarsk pillars. Overall historically important collection of 130 original gelatin silver photographs documenting the 1939-1940 Soviet Oil Exploration Expedition to Nordvik Bay. hardcover

1931réf. ABC_46004Greece Palestine Iran Iraq Egypt 1931. Oblong photograph album 20.5 x 32 cm. With 72 sepia photographs ca. 6 x 8.5 cm. Album of personal photographs commemorating a journey in 1931-1932 to the oilfields in modern Iran and Iraq by a trio of travellers which included the Reverend Philip "Tubby" Clayton 1885-1972 the founder of the Toc H movement. Several photographs show Galilee Jerusalem Rutbah Wells Ar-Rutbah and about 10 show "fields" mostly the main oilfield at Masjed Soleyman and its gas separator.In 1931 Clayton was invited by the director of the Anglo-Persian Oil Company the predecessor of the British Petroleum Company "to inspect the work among the Company units in Persia and the Middle East generally" Harcourt. Accompanied by two friends he travelled by plane train and boat to Lake Tiberias and further by plane to Rutbah Wells a British airfield where the group spent Christmas Eve with British Dutch and German travellers. On Christmas Day they reached Abadan and from there visited the oilfields near Tehran Ahvaz Haftkel Mohammerah Basra and Masjed Soleyman. After a journey to Cairo and Alexandria they boarded an oil tanker for the return journey to Britain. This journey inspired Clayton to plead passionately for improvements to the life of the crews of oil tankers. He described "carrying oil by sea" as "the most lonely job on the world's waters" Clayton. In 1940 he became chaplain of Anglo-Saxon Petroleum's tanker fleet and would subsequently sail on multiple tankers.The photographs must have been taken by Henry Pegg Chappell 1909-1997 since the other members appear he is the only member not present in the photographs and he does not and only Clayton who completed the journey by oil tanker. A carbon copy of a typed list describing all photographs is inserted in the album. Since typed and handwritten additions to the carbon paper refer to Clayton in the third person he probably typed the original list and gave Chappell this carbon copy to insert in his album.With an inscription probably by the three travellers on the title page. Binding slightly worn at the extremities. Paperclip and staple on the typescript rusted. In very good condition.l Clayton "In a tanker" in: The Times 9 March 1932 p. 15; Harcourt The impudent dreamer pp. 216-219. unknown
