Great photos as always Paul.

I can hardly wait for this one. This is one of the lights I've been waiting for, for a few years. towel

I thought about you when I was shooting the close up images, Eric.. Sue I have stopped there several times over the years as we make the turn at the corner of the panhandle..

Very nice, but, even though it's a Florida light all skeleton lights look the same.

Nice looking piece! Great pics Paul !!!

IMO - I think Tinicum Range would have been a better choice for a skeleton light, if I'm correct, it's the only skeleton tower with a building in it's center.

Michigan Island also has the center building.

Your right! It's identical to Tinicum. Also interesting is that it was originally located on the PA side of the Delaware River opposite Tinicum. It was then known as Schooners Ledge.

I have to respectfully disagree with you. Yes a few probably are of the same plans but even then we have different color schemes and back ground.
For someone that never saw the Crooked River light may not appreciate it but as one that has seen it I can appreciate this figurine and I have put this on my must have list. It is well done. Great pictures Paul.

I believe it went for $300...not bad in this day and age of disinterest in collectibles...

Alligator Light just sold for over $700. Yes it is crazy, just sorry it wasn't mine. I'm hanging on to that one.
