Pasadena and San Marino, two cities near Los Angeles, are homes to very old incandescent street lights that date to the 1920s. Most have radial wave reflectors, some have admiral hat reflectors. They are still run as series incandescent since the day they were installed. Here is a pic of one in San Marino that dates to 1926.

And yet one thing overlooked were the old post-top Novalux luminaires with the capped globes.  They were very common here in Buffalo.
