Industry Texas Posters and Art Prints

Falcon Records was a record label from McAllen, Texas, that was instrumental in the establishment of tejano as a widespread musical style. Founded in 1948 by Arnaldo Ramirez, the label specialized in the rural norteño music which had been abandoned by the major labels. By the early 1960s it was clearly the leading tejano music label. Falcon was responsible for numerous recordings by Los Alegres de Terán, Chelo Silva, René y René, Roberto Pulido, and many other tejano and norteño artists of significance. Falcon's product gained international exposure through the syndicated television program Fanfarria Falcon. The label's activities wound down around 1990, and the recordings were purchased by EMI.

Doodlebugger is the common term for seismic field personnel in the petroleum industry, though their talents are certainly utilized far beyond just the oil fields. Doodlebuggers are the guys who seek out oil, natural gas, and other precious commodities by exciting the ground with everything from explosives and drop weights, to pieces of specialized heavy equipment called *cough* vibrators. They work in the most extreme climates, and in some of the most dangerous and untamed land, long before any extraction operations can be put into place. This design comes to us from Houston's Herb J. Hawthorne Company in promotion of their Blue Demon drill bits from 1951.

Atlantic Rose Hong Kong Ship by Debra Martz The Atlantic Rose from Hong Kong coming by Port Aransas, Texas in the Corpus Christi Ship Channel. I was actually out bird watching and had my 150-600mm lens which at 150mm could only get sections of the ship. So I shot 3 images and stitched together in Lightroom using Photo Merge Panorama. ©Debra Martz In My Galleries/Collections "Coastal" "Texas" 20190417-DSC_4690-Pano
