Photographs Depict History of Mexico’s Oil Industry

Contributed by Ray Fohr

Birth of Mexico "The History of Mexico's Oil Industry," a photographic exhibit curated by Marco Bracamontes, president of the Houston-Tampico Sister City Association, was shown in Mexico City this past October at the Club de Industriales, the top business club in Mexico’s capital. Bracamontes’ historic photo collection features images from the early stages in the development of one of Mexico’s top economic drivers (1900 -1938). 

The show was on display days before Mexico’s Congress approved a major energy reform which allows foreign firms’ participation in that sector.

The exhibit has also been shown in Austin, Houston, Dallas, and Tampico, Mexico, and consists of images from U.S. and British archives and collections. I highly recommend catching this unique photographic exhibit if you have the opportunity.

For more information or to contact the organization please visit  Houston-Tampico Sister City Association.
