1940s Oil Field


We can see an oil field in the background here, and those derricks look like a 1940s type.

  1. I guess if you were out in the boonies, in all-male company, tending your livestock buck naked was no big deal. And the oil roustabouts were all males, so if they noticed, it would not have fazed them.

    1. You have a good point about the boonies. When I was a teenager, we hired high school boys to man the open ditch irrigation system in the hay fields. It was muddy, hot work, and some of the guys would do the work in the nude . . . as long as they were out of sight of the houses and the main road.
