Collection of vintage books relating to the petroleum industry
£7,500
Including The Petroleum Times and La Revue Pétrolifère, this collection consists of around 40 books exploring the oil industry from the 1920s to the 1960s.
This vast collection of approximately 40 publications explores the topic of the oil industry in the 20th century. Titles included are the British The Petroleum Times and the French La Revue Pétrolifère.
Inside are advertisements, as well as articles about recent oil developments. For example, in one of The Petroleum Times books is an article about the first floating platform for offshore drilling in the Pacific or an advert for another book celebrating fifty years of British oil development.
All books are in hardback editions with brown and navy covers, making them not only very interesting reads but also wonderful décor pieces for, for example, one’s library or study.
