Title	Aerial view of El Segundo Standard Oil Refining Company, in June 1933
Description	Photograph of an aerial view of El Segundo Standard Oil Refining Company, in June 1933. The land is stripped of foliage in most areas, and a series of cylindrical tanks dots the entire spread, some sitting at varying distances from each other in the foreground, and others in a similar position in the distance. The company proper sits at center, a series of vessels and stacks and piping lined with several houses at left. Smaller tanks sit in this area, connected by pipes to the other equipment. Right of this sits a building several stories tall, surrounded by house-like structures. The rightmost area of the scene is composed of a few more cylindrical tanks, and several cemented ovals in the grass. In the distance, one can discern the silhouettes of several derricks in a populated area.
