But sometimes, a cable assembly is just a cable assembly. Hmmm...

OMG! Vinylite™ nipples and... [gasp] Extra-Heavy NUTS! (Yes, I am secretly eleven years old. What of it?)

Ah, yes. Let's return now to those golden days before fire and safety regs...

I'm totally humming the second portion of Raymond Scott's "Powerhouse" as I look these over. Aren't you?

"For over thirty-five years, The Electric Auto-Lite Company has specialized its abilities on the production of automotive starting, lighting, and ignition equipment. The engineering know-how and specialized skills that have resulted from that experience will become apparent to you as you use this catalog of automotive wire and cables..." I've done my best to pinpoint a date for this. According to General Cable History : "1911 - Prestolite Wire, acquired by General Cable in 2012, was originally founded as Electric Autolite. A wire and cable division was official[ly] established in Port Huron, Michigan, in the 1930[s] and that was when the Prestolite Brand name first came into use."
