Electric fence was a battery powered outfit when I was a kid in the 1960?s . Batteries were around decades before.

My Dad had an electric "fencer" back in the mid 40s when I was a little kid.
Sometimes he powered it with a big dry cell battery but mostly with a plain ol' 6 volt car battery.

NE Oklahoma is a great place to take a trip too. Claremore has these two really fantastic stops. There may be more but we got caught by the calendar. http://www.thegunmuseum.com/ gm

Yep. Electric fences were used to deadly effect in Europe in WWI to control "unauthorized movement" on a border controlled by Germany between 1914 and 1918. They estimate that that fence killed about 3,000 people. Folks started using electric fences for livestock in the US in the 30's.

Near Point Barrow Alaska. His Pilot was Willey Post, who only had one eye. Can't remember what plane they were flying. A Waco?
