This scarce map of the Laredo Oil Field was produced during the great Texas Oil Boom of the early 20th century. Divided into parcels, it shows the large oil pools discovered in the region including Mirando, Schott, Aviator, and Leaseholder's pools. Surrounding the map are a wide variety of ads of mostly local businesses, while text on verso describes the oil pools, oil companies and the advantages of Laredo. Published by J.R. Bradshaw and approved by the Laredo Chamber of Commerce.
