[Texas]. [Oil]. Cameron-Anderson Company

[Group of Three Photographically-Illustrated Promotional Flyers for a Fort Worth Oil Company]

[Fort Worth: ca. 1925]. Three flyers, each [4]pp. on a single folded sheet. Old folds, moderate toning and creasing. Very good. Item #2199

A trio of Texas oil company promotionals calling for investment in various wells and leases by the Cameron-Anderson Company, based in Fort Worth. All three of the publications tout the opportunity to invest in the Archer-Baylor protection leases; one of the flyers states a "positively last call" deadline for investing as May 30, presumably of 1925 or 1926. All three of the publications also mention and picture the Turbeville No.1 well, which was part of the Archer-Baylor lease and was currently being drilled in Archer County. Two of the three promotionals picture C.M. "Hap" Hapgood, "now superintendent for the Cameron-Anderson Company," whose legend was secured when he struck a "great gas field" for the Amarillo Oil Company. Hapgood now "predicts rich pay under the cap rock" of the Turbeville well, whose drilling he was supervising. A rare trio of ephemeral Texas oil company advertisements.
