Cross Arms, PA
This November, we’re thankful for the mail that arrived on Friday the 28th: 30 hard to find copies of Cross Arms, an insulator collectors’ magazine that ran for a brief time in the 70s. Reinsulator now has a full set for 1973, and partial sets for the remaining years. Below are some scans of pages advertising swaps, shows, and events. These are often hand drawn and/or have amazing layouts, type, etc. If you’re generally curious about cross arms, the section of a telephone or telegraph pole the magazine’s title references, there’s a good in-depth overview here from Crown Wealth.
