Title	Shell Oil Company employee at work in the interior of the building, ca.1940
Description	Photograph of a Shell Oil Company employee at work in the interior of the building, ca.1940. Thick, oil-stained pipes on the left connect to a central pipe overhead and to smaller pipes which appear to run into the floor at center. Dark boxes stand with dials monitoring "gallons" sit in a row on a metal platform which lies in front of the pipes. A man in oil-spotted coveralls and glasses manipulates the farthest box on the right.
