Here are some interesting lighthouses in Michigan which Harbour Lights has not yet made:
Saugatuck (Kalamazoo River) Light (a lost lighthouse on Lake Michigan)
Beaver Island (S. Beaver Head, Lake Michigan)
Ontonagon (Lake Superior, Upper Peninsula)
Hopefully, they could be made in the small size (This Little Light of Mine) since they would be much more affordable and take up less space.

Harbour Lights listens to their collectors. I truly believe if there is enough support expressed for a certain light, they will make it in one form or another. Drumming up support is the tough part. Posting pictures would certainly help along with a narrative of why this light (or these lights) should be considered. Bob

Those three sound like they would make great Harbour Lights replicas, but I prefer regular sized limited edition pieces.
It's always interesting to see what HL releases each year. They do listen to us on the CF.
My preference is that HL spreads the releases to cover as many area's as possible. Example: one from MA or RI, one from CT or NY, One from NJ or DE, one from MD or VA, one from Lake Michigan, one from Lake Erie, one from WA or OR, etc...
Great to hear your wishlist, I'm going to reshearch these lighthouses.

You're very welcome. The state of Michigan has the most lighthouses, and each one has something special about it.
