Hatteras GAL.I`ve never seen in person,at an event,on e-bay,anywhere.Where are they????
TerryBarfield

Terry, The first year of the open edition Cape Hatteras's have the "Great American Lighthouses" (GAL) tag on the bottom of the piece. Harbour Lights changed the name of the line to "Great Lighthouses of the World" (GLOW) after the first year. I think it was because of a legal problem with some other company all ready using that phrase. So it is only the "A" flag cape Hatteras's that are "GAL"

Thanks Mark,
I`ve still never seen one or even heard of one for sale.How many GALs are out there?Were they stopped before ever getting the idea through the factory?I know its a GlOW now,but why is the GAL never brought up?
Just curious,TerryBarfield

My Cape Hatteras is a GAL #A034.

Any other collectors have a Cape Hatteras

GAL?

Yep! Me Too! At one time the GAL was selling for $150 to $190 on the secondary market. Mine is number A1587, pictured on the following Harbour Lights page along with some GAL information!

Maybe if we revealed to the newbs that the forums are actually a giant adventure game with clues scattered all over the place...

Art, Thanks for explaining the cryptic letters. I too was confused but afraid to ask what they meant. I'll know in the future to check other places. Thanks again. Carolyn
