Ocean Dr., Unit 424 Hallendale Beach, FL 33009-6649 Dear Ms. Decelle, Dan Nephin of the Associated Press gave me your address and emailed that Drake Well Museum would be contacting you. I hope you are not offended at this invasion of your privacy and I hope you can help me. A few years ago, Drake Well Museum acquired a photographic collection from a former Pennzoil employee which includes a number of images of you and others as “Penny Pennzoil.” You’re beautiful! In fact, we would like to create a life-size cut-out figure of you for our new exhibits. I have enclosed the image we would like to use to create this figure which we plan to install in the “Marketing Oil” section of the exhibit. Do you mind? The idea of having life-sized figures for the exhibit started this search for the identity of different Penny Pennzoils. Drake Well staff wanted to identify the people whose images we would enlarge for the new exhibits and receive their permission if we can (most figures are from the 1800s). Unfortunately, few of the images are identified in the Pennzoil photograph collection, but I have enclosed photocopies of some images in hope that you can identify the people. Did you know any of the other models who played “Penny Pennzoil”? Did Pennzoil advertise the job or just contract with a modeling agency? Did Pennzoil provide your travel arrangements or did you have to pay for your flights? Did you visit Drake Well Museum when you were in Oil City? This year is the 150th anniversary of the Drake Well and the birth of the modern oil industry. I invite you to join us for our August 27th celebration. Gratefully yours, Susan J. Beates Historian/Curator .

  • CONNECTING to COLLECTIONS PENNSYLVANIA a Five-Year Preservation Plan for Pennsylvania PROJECT OVERVIEW
    CONNECTING TO COLLECTIONS PENNSYLVANIA a five-year preservation plan for Pennsylvania PROJECT OVERVIEW Imagining Our Future: Preserving Pennsylvania’s Collections, published in August 2009, includes an in-depth analysis of conditions and needs at Pennsylvania’s collecting institutions, a detailed preservation plan to improve collections care throughout the state, and a five-year implementation timetable (2010-2015). The analysis concludes that many of Pennsylvania’s most important historic holdings must be considered at risk. Millions of items comprise these collections, and the financial resources available to care for them are limited and shrinking. Pennsylvania is a state vibrant with world-class art museums, libraries, historic sites. Arts and culture play a substantial role in creating business, jobs, and bringing revenue into the state and stewardship of its artifacts is too important —to the state, to the people, to the history of country—to be ignored. This call to action is a rallying cry for all future generations of Pennsylvanians. With generous support from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, and in close partnership with three leading preservation organizations, the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission (PHMC), the Pennsylvania Federation of Museums and Historical Organizations (PFMHO), and LYRASIS, the Conservation Center for Arts & Historic Artifacts organized and led the assessment and planning process. The project was capably guided by a Task Force with representatives from the Office of (PA) Commonwealth Libraries, the Western Pennsylvania Museum Council, the Pennsylvania Caucus of the Mid- Atlantic Regional Archives Conference, Pennsylvania State University, the Philadelphia Area Consortium of Special Collections Libraries, the University of Pittsburgh, and Carnegie Mellon University.

    Up Front Innovators By Alfred N. Mann Petroleum Pioneers In 1859 Edwin Drake first applied well- drilling technology to produce significant quantities of crude petroleum at Titusville, Pennsylvania.1-10 Few realize, however, that Samuel Kier had refined crude oil in Pittsburgh by distillation five years earlier than Drake. Kier’s primary product was kerosene, a clean burning lamp fuel. To commemorate the 150th anniversary of the drilling of the Drake well, the American Chemical Society (ACS) will present a National Historical Chemical Landmark award commemorating Samuel Kier’s work in Pittsburgh on August 26, and another to the Drake Well Museum at Titusville on August 27. Today’s extensive worldwide petroleum industry is a direct outgrowth of the efforts of Drake and Kier, first demonstrated in Western Pennsylvania. Here’s a primer on these two and some other pioneers of the oil industry: Petroleum (literally, “rock oil”) had been gathered at numerous natural seeps for hundreds of years.
