Looks very much like my area.....I will have to find a good pic....either 10 or 12 footer for this one..Circa 80s to early 90s due to bottom bracket design..

Strange how much newer the arm looks....doesn't look like steel either,looks like aluminimum.

It IS alunimum....all the truss arms in my area are aluminum....plus the OVS is a late 80s fixture Wink

the OVS is the Least common CH Fixture,see them ocassionally here,the Truss Arms like i said are pretty Prevelant in Far East Texas,dont see many West of Gladewater...every other city using long arms are usually Guy Wire Arms.

The OVS is a Cooper ain't it? The OVM too.

Well technically Crouse Hinds WAS cooper. Since my Tudor DOES have "Cooper" written on the label. My OVM too.

im confused....cooper bought the westinghouse streetlighting division right?...where does Crouse Hinds come in at?

I think the cooper streetlights were marketed under the Crouse-Hinds name until Streetworks came along. Just a guess though....

Close Up Of Truss Arm

Close up of one of the Truss Arms in Gladwater,Texas....not the only place that uses these,they are generally common in Upshur and Greg County and some towns in specific (Longview,Gladwater,Hallsville,Kilgore)....this pic is especially so jace could make a comparison.
