A convoy of horse-drawn wagons can be seen carting barrels brimming with precious oil through the dusty streets. Men and women, their faces marked by determination and hard work, navigate alongside these carts as they contribute to this burgeoning industry that would shape America's future. The image captures not only the physical labor involved in transporting these barrels but also reveals a glimpse into daily life during this transformative era. The street is alive with energy; it exudes an air of excitement mixed with uncertainty as people grapple with newfound opportunities brought about by this lucrative resource.
