What is it?

What is this? What is its purpose? Who made it?

Looks like an old school parking meter

It's a parking meter.
Which company made this meter?

No,that's not the manufacturer. The manufacturers name is the same as that of the Mediterranean island which had one of the 7 wonders of the world at the entrance to its harbor.

Is it the Mark-Time "Hurricane" parking meter, manufactured by M.H.Rhodes Inc., Hartford Connecticut, U.S.A?

You've got it this time,Admiral. This is a later model,slightly taller than the original and has the display visible on both sides. The original model had a display that was only visible from the street side.

Admiral and Scifan seem to be getting some shut eye. Nothing has been posted for well over 2 hours now.

I have a challenge which I will post in about 15 minutes' time, just to make sure I'm following the rules. ;)

OK, here is my challenge.

What is this a photo of part of? I need the whole item to be named. Under what conditions did I take the photo?

Excuse the blurring, but I've enlarged a photo as much as I dare to.

Here is my photo opened out.

I hope there will be some guesses.

The challenge is pretty straightforward :)
