1862 Canadian Oil
Petrolia

This is an interesting magazine that I purchased recently that contains an amazing eye witness account of the Petrolia oil fields by a journalist ca.1862. I have included the entire magazine for your enjoyment, as it is worthy of your interest.

We are always looking for vintage Petrolia & area pics of anything to buy or borrow for copying. If you have pictures that I can borrow I only need a few minutes to scan them.
