Oil well supplies As remembered by Mr. Lyttle, “I went to California in 1923 where I ran into Bob Kyle in Long Beach. He told me Freeman was working in the oil field on Signal Hill and a few days later we got together. I later met his boss who told me how Freeman had come up the hill looking for a job. He asked Freeman if he had any experience and Freeman said yes. Well, he told me he had seen a rig and that was all he knew but he was such a hard worker as a roughneck he couldn’t fire him and soon was a good hand.“It was here he conceived the idea of buying junk oil field equipment and the start of the Oil Tool Corporation. After accumulating quite a lot of this secondhand equipment, he started leasing it out to drillers on a percentage basis. His first return was a discovery at Huntington Beach, and later at Bakersfield, which brought in enough revenue for Freeman to enlarge his business from just second hand to selling new equipment. The Oil Tool Corp. soon became one of the larger suppliers of oil well equipment in the Long Beach area; with the largest pipe threader, casing and drill stem straighteners in the area.
