Description: A tall steel column with a caged ladder and a railed platform at its top rises above a tangle of pipes, towers and scaffolding; in the foreground lies a long horizontal tank marked V24, and white steam blows from the right across the upper part of the plant. The refinery appears to be that of the Standard Oil Company of California, whose office stands at its gate.
