EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by John Vachon showcases the de-waxing plant at Mid-Continent refinery in Tulsa, Oklahoma during the 1940s. The image captures a significant moment in American history as it was taken during World War II, when the country's industries were mobilized to support the war effort. The vibrant colors of the photograph bring to life the exterior of this industrial building, highlighting its importance within the petroleum industry. The de-waxing plant stands tall and imposing against a clear blue sky, symbolizing America's strength and determination during this pivotal era. The machinery visible in the foreground represents progress and innovation, showcasing how technology played a crucial role in refining petroleum products. John Vachon's keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate not only the physical structure of this factory but also its historical significance. As part of his work for Farm Security Administration (FSA) and Office of War Information (OWI), Vachon documented various aspects of American life during these transformative times. This still image from Vachon's collection serves as a testament to both his artistic talent and his dedication to preserving our heritage. It offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on America's industrial prowess, unity, and resilience throughout World War II.
