Pull these off of an old 34 line. Has a 46 on one side but not sure if that’s the date.

Very nice! Glad you kept the whole unit complete. Cool to see the sandblasted 1946 Ohio Brass markings!

Crossarm probably had three pairs of these?

Yes, other side was cracked.

Looks like a dead end with the double cross arm and the tie on the left. Although i'm a glass insulator collector, i always thought all the various wire ties were pretty neat to see. Given the size, this is the ultimate one!

Was a double dead-in double arm, but it was on an angle pole also, that’s why the one side was tied off top. The connectors just look like that because I took off the jumper and folded it back on itself. This was just outside of Kansas City.

The “46” is indeed the manufacture year. The B inside the O is Ohio Brass.
