Special issue of the Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation's company magazine celebrating 15 years in business. Printed entirely in Arabic, articles discuss corporate history and the story of oil in Egypt and its notables, including exploration in the Gulf of Suez and the establishment of drilling rigs in 1959, the latter being illustrated with some impressive images. Further, the magazine comprises a report on oil exploration in Algeria by geologist Nabil Abdel Hadi, and an article on safety and security commemorating an exhibition of safety posters in 1972. It concludes with leisure activities of company workers, recent weddings and new borns, and even marriage advice, as well as cartoons and a crossword puzzle.

A little creased around the edges, otherwise in fine condition.
