At the time this photo was taken, Bluffton, Indiana was still using the old 6.6A series street lighting loop, which only a few cities and towns were using at the time. The street lighting circuits were changed over to modern parallel circuit system a few years after the photo was taken.

In this shot shows a double pole with more gadgets for the series street lighting, and a street full of the old Westinghouse OV-10 mercury vapor street lights.

Yes, the double pole was leaning that far to the right.
