Scope and content
The figures of two Puget Sound Power & Light Co. employees are silhouetted against the gray skies on December 16, 1929, as they cling to the top of a newly installed 60-foot power pole at 5th Ave. & 3rd St. in Puyallup. A company work truck is parked nearby. Linemen Robert Wolfe and Ole Moe were in the process of tieing in high tension wires to the new pole. This was dangerous work as the line carried 55,000 volts.
