Back in the early 60s, I had occasion to talk to a ham, on 40 meter AM, who
was a broadcast engineer.  I remember him telling me that his station's
tower was made of wood.  It had a run of copper tubing, on standoff
insulators, going up the side that did the radiating.  He was in eastern
North Dakota.  I think this station was KSJB, in Jamestown, but my memory
may not be accurate.  Anyone else aware of any wood towers out there, past
or present?
