Lighthouse Legacy Vol 7 #4 Arrives

My issue of the latest Lighthouse Legacy newsletter for Collectors Society members arrived today.

Here are some highlights:

[*]Cover photo of Point No Point by Pat Anderson - who has a Gallery on the web site

[*]Feature on the Eddystone light sculpture

[*]Charlie & Susie Copp are featured in the Collectors Corner

[*]Photos of a new 2001 item: The Point Allerton Life Saving Station and four USLSS staff.

[*]Preview photo of Yerba Buena CA lighthouse which will be the In-Store Event Exclusive for 2001.

[*]Early retirement of 9 1997 issues which did not reach their full production run.

I am so pumped about the Yerba Buena piece and can hardly wait to see what it is going to look like. Can you show those of us that are on the "Mule Train" run for the latest Legacy what Yerba Buena looks like?

It would be nice to see point allerton I did a short tour there on TAD once.A rugged place in the summer.Arough trip to the boat especially on weekends.

Of course, I won't get *my* Legacy for another month. Meanwhile, here's a pic of the real Point Allerton Lifesaving Station . I like it!

Is the new lifesaving station part of a new series, or is it considered as a limited edition lighthouse? Will we see more & more lifesaving stations being produced?

I have 2 lifesaving stations in my collection and have had some interest in them from living on Cape Cod.This will be a welcome addition to my group.Bill O'Brien oseabee.

I have never figured out why I'm just 1 state east of John but I get my Legacy about 1-2 weeks after he does. Blasted postal service. Oh well, it'll be here sometime.

Don't feel bad Mike...I live in AZ the same as John only on the West side in Glendale and I still have not received mine. Not to worry though I'm sure "it's in the mail."

Ruthie

No Legacy in Massachusetts yet. I'm hoping my dealer will be getting in some of HL's latest so I can add them to my collection. I'm sure he'll be pleased to hear about Point Allerton. He tells me he wishes they would make more HLs from the New England area. Those are always his best sellers.

Bob

Anything in the new Legacy about next years Great Lakes models?

If past history is any indicator, I'll be reading the 'Legacy' with my Christmas turkey !

It arrived on 11/16/2000 here in the Denver metro. Looking forward to acquiring Yerba Buena CA. Truely a beautiful piece. Haven't made up mind on Port Alerton. 2001 should be an interesting year.

Finally got mine today. Nice issue. Neat that they used one of Todd's great pictures for their holiday card.

Dave

Got mine in Georgia yesterday. I love them but the only problem with them is that they don't take long to read through them!

Rusty

Mine arrived today.Torch,Jackie`s right!


TerryBarfield

recieved my legacy today.My dealer got his on monday.Did anyone pick up"We will be offering an entirely different sculpture to those who attend regional events in 2001.We will introduce the 2001 regional event piece to you in the next issue of the legacy.
Did someone fall asleep and not read his or her legacy?This could make for some interesting conjecture.
Bill O'Brien oseabee

LOL Terry... well, guess we know who has good taste in this family. She told me that, that is one piece I can put on my office desk. LOL

Bill O'B... heard about it before Legacy came out. Should be interesting eh?!

Tim - Keeping the flame lit...

Gee what will arrive first? My Legacy or a President Elect!

Finally on Friday, 11/17 the Legacy arrives here in the NY area!

Donna

Finally !!! Legacy Vol 7 arrives 11-20-00.
I had a very pleasant surprise on the back cover. There was a picture of Gil Nagel presenting Bill his "Kentucky Colonel Certificate". The Derby City Lights Collectors Group thought it would be fitting for Bill to be honored. Gil volunteered to request the certificate and he framed the document himself. Thanks Gil for all your hard work.

Recieved my Legacy on Monday. Was hoping to see a picture of St. Helena. John, Paul, any help ?

Mine was in the weekend mail and I read it thru in a snap...but, I also reread it several times. I was tickled to see a note from one of the teachers in the school I was in last year thanking Bill for the little lights he sent them and to see one of the student letters as well...then there was Tampa Bay's HL own Wayne Hawes with Bill...I know it is a big undertaking to do more often but it would be great....the personal touch with the photos is very enjoyable and I surely agree about Todd's photo..great!

I finally received my Legacy yesterday. I first would like to thank Harbour Lights for using my photo of the Saginaw River Rear Range Light for their Christmas card to collectors and others. I feel quite honored that it was used, especially since it has not been sculpted as a Harbour Light. (Not yet anyway) My sincerest thanks to Harbour Lights!

I am also excited to see that the "Register and Win" contest is back again for its third year. So remember to save the proof of purchase from any full-size sculpture bought between January 1st and March 31, 2001 and send it in!

-Todd

Very good issue me thinks. Nice article on the USLSS. Great article on the Copps. Nice card thanks to Todd. And yours truly even got another mention.

Thanks Mo!
