Instead of a Gusher - Fire !
Oil Well Explosion in West Texas
This well was being "shot" to increase oil production. Rocks thrown out hit steel, creating sparks and fire resulted. The photographer, set for a gusher view, snapped this remarkable picture!

Not postally used.
Minor corner wear. Narrow strip of toning along top edge. Curved stain apx 1" from lower left corner. Random light stains on back. Darker stain on back behind top edge - perhaps from a paper clip.
