EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of industrial America in the early 1940s. The image showcases a sprawling Phillips gasoline plant located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Taken by renowned photographer Jack Delano, this print transports us back to a time when factories were at the heart of economic growth. The composition highlights the sheer magnitude of the plant's exterior, with smokestacks billowing thick plumes of smoke into the sky. The machinery and infrastructure on display depict a bustling hub of activity as workers go about their tasks. This snapshot serves as a testament to American ingenuity and progress during an era marked by significant advancements in manufacturing. While it is impossible to ignore the pollution caused by such plants, this photo also reminds us of our reliance on fossil fuels for energy production at that time. It offers valuable insight into how industries operated before environmental concerns took center stage. Delano's skillful capture allows viewers to appreciate both the beauty and complexity found within these structures. As we gaze upon this piece, we are transported back in time - witnessing firsthand an important chapter in American history where industry thrived amidst challenges and innovation was key.
