I don’t think I’ve ever seen a young man stand like that, with the pole emplaced just-so. And he further decided to place the tail of his coat-jacket up-over the pole(?) Huh? What was his “statement“ in those days, like that , I have to wonder.

He's obviously the local "Joe Cool" posing for his close up.

But I was thinking more about what's going on with the quartet in the window.

Yes, indeed, I wondered about them, too. Maybe, they are fans of pole man (?) Or perhaps they are all just tuned-in because a camera is present.

They all certainly had a whole universe less of things available to amuse and interest than we have nowadays. In fact, when I look affectionately back to my childhood of the 50's, I was amused and had adventures every day, but nothing anywhere near today's standards. In fact, for example, my parents had the first television (Admiral, if I recall correctly) in our suburb, and we quickly established the custom of inviting neighbors - anytime they wanted - to come to our home to watch TV.

A pot, “muscles”, and a telltale bulge. Quite a diverse posse.

That's at a blacksmith's shop in Scranton; some hard men in that group.

Funny play on words.

The third guy from the left is guilty of a "silent but deadly". Their expressions say it all.

Agreed (!)

I wonder if that building still exists. It would make a great model.

Is that a canal waterway on its right?

Pretty sure that's the Shenango River, and I don't think that building is still standing....maybe was at State and Shenango.
