Ector County oil development. Bill Jackson (left), derrickman. Jackson is shown standing with an unnamed worker and smiling slightly at the camera. He has his left hand in his pocket, while the other is holding onto something off camera. Jackson is wearing a dirtied long-sleeve shirt with a pair of gloves and a helmet. The unnamed man is wearing similar attire, however he is wearing a regular hat, instead of a helmet. Behind them, the rest of the oil field can be seen.
