CASPER AND OIL FIELDS
ARE REPRODUCED IN BIG
PANORAMIC VIEWS HERE

In new plate glass showcase
erected at the w. +. Carpenter studio
at lis East First street. today are
being exhibited samples of some OF
the best panoramic pictures Of Cas-
per and the oil fields over filmed by
a local photographer The views,
which are FIVE and six feet in length
by ten inches wide. allow ample space
for detail and settings and are val
liable from an artistic standpoint in
addition TO reproducing scenes which
arc highly interesting from n local
point of view. Due to the neutral
contrasts the pictures were obtained
at considerable effort.
One Of the most interesting of he
pictures was taken from h top OF
the. first large oil tank across the
river, north from the rcfineries. In
the foreground lies the Platte river
at high tide and in the background
Casper mountain. The refineries and
the city extend from one end of the
picture to the other. Another view
shows the city OF Casper as II ap-
pears from reservoir" hill on the
| southwest, and others are confined to
the Midwest refining plant and the
Big Muddy oil field.
Two views of the great SAT- creek
oil field. perhaps the best ever taken.
are Included. and the gas plant at salt
| Creek is also reproduced. The Salt
| Creek views were taken in opposite
directions across the basin, showing
the majority of derricks on the oil
lands.
The photographs probably will be
eagerly sought by oil companies and
any of the views would make attrac'
tive pictures for the office.
