Eating Kilgore Lunch Texas Worker
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of the American oil industry in the late 1930s, as an oil worker takes a moment to rest and enjoy his lunch in Kilgore, Texas. The rugged terrain of the oil field is evident in the background, with drilling rigs and pump jacks dotting the landscape. The worker, dressed in work clothes and a hard hat, sits on a wooden barrel, his lunchbox and water bottle at his side. The image offers a glimpse into the harsh working conditions and the simple pleasures that sustained the men and women who toiled in the oil fields. The scene is a poignant reminder of the human element in the extraction of natural resources, and the resilience and determination required to tame the raw power of the earth. The photograph, taken in 1939, is a testament to the rich history of the oil industry in America and the hardworking individuals who have shaped its legacy.
