Wow, plenty of action going on here, too! Telephone open wire lines grace the left side of this street with electric distribution and fire alarm circuits along the right. A pair of wooden telephone open-wire to paired-cable junction boxes are seen atop the pole on the left. Take a close look and check out the cool crossarm brackets on the right. One can only imagine what kinds of interesting insulators were within this scene!
