On the left is a good looking, single circuit electric transmission line with some sort of porcelain multipart (or Pyrex glass?) insulators atop it. Below (on the same pole line) looks like the power company's private telephone circuit for dispatching, switching, etc. Also in view is a then-typical ten-pin crossarm line supporting telephone circuits.
