262   imageU.S., History of Western Pennsylvania's Oil Industry. A truly amazing, well annotated, impossible to duplicate, ultimate collection of postal history and a vast amount of collateral material housed in six thick binders all related to the oil industry detailing its early history in Western Pennsylvania. Many hundreds of items including covers with interesting corner cards, cancellations and postal markings beginning from the earliest American oil boom period in the 1860s. Fantastic, content rich letters and full correspondences all assembled by Dr Robertson in a thoughtful narrative history of early oil drilling; also noteworthy are share certificates beginning from the 1860s and much more, familiar oil related town cancels such as: Corry, Miller Farm, Oil City, Petroleum Center, Pithole City, Rouseville, Tidioute, Titusville and many dozen more are present. This collection formed over fifty years, begins in the 1860s following Colonel Drake's discovery and contains a plethora of covers that would make wonderful individual auction lots but have been kept in the collection for continuity. Our conservative estimate only reflects the philatelic value, for the collector of anything oil-related and its history in what easily could be made into an ideal winning collection, its value is priceless.
