Description

Oil Tank Fire Cabinet Photo Picture Gas Fuel Construction Industrial. Shipped with USPS First Class mail.
This is an old photograph, most likely an antique (estimated to be 1900s -1930s) of an old oil tank with the oil inside set on fire. You can see the workers beneath watching the fire, and a new tank being built to the left. The tank with the fire looks older due to the fading paint at the top and the buckling of the metal on the left. So perhaps the leftover oil in this tank was set on fire to burn up the remainder as they were planning on switching to the new tank that they were in the process of building. None of this is confirmed, this is just a guess based on the photo contents. The exact age of this photo is unknown. It’s adhered to a cabinet card. There is plenty of damage and wear due to age and use, including Solarization, stains, marks wear etc. See photos for measurements and details. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!
