These pictures were, most likely, taken somewhere in central Pennsylvania circa 1937.  The first photo shows a radio transmitter/receiver as was used by the U.S. Forest Service.  The second photo shows the fire watch tower in which it was located.  

The radio is a USFS Type T, model CC, which operated in the 30-35 mHz band.
