This wonderfully preserved map centered on the Spindletop oilfield (then Beaumont Oil Filed at Gladys City*, just south of Beaumont) marks the birth of the modern petroleum industry and beginning of the oil boom in Texas. On top of that, the wildly intricate border and title block (see detail) make it almost a work of art. This excellent reproduction is printed on heavy parchment style paper and is excellent for framing.
*NOTE: The upper right-hand portion of the map is an inset detail of the area just south of Beaumont.
