ITE "Pushmatic" Equipment

Attached is a compiled image containing some ITE Pushmatic Equipment (Similar to the "Bulldog" line).

Notice the original Carton and original individual boxes for the breakers! My Father had these in stock / storage, and must have purchased them new.

The Circuit Breakers in the boxes are "P1520's", which are Duplex Single Pole Frames (only connect to one Bus, mount on only one side of the Bus kit).
They have One (1) 15 Amp Single Pole, and One (1) 20 Amp Single Pole terminal - like a standard "Stack" or "Piggy-Back" Breaker would.
Even though they can only be used for Single Pole Circuits (1 Ungrounded Conductor , only terminating from 1 Ungrounded Bus), they are still "Slash Rated" as "120/240V A-C"

Below is a compiled page of images:
