Click here to view a photo and list of numbers within the five different Minot\'s Ledge MA

If you have a Minot's Ledge MA, please report the edition number and the variation type (refer to the page.)

The range of edition numbers shown was developed over five years ago and perhaps we have some new pieces to check and narrow down the places where the changes were made.

Don't use the email link on the page.

I just checked my curios and my Minots Light is not on display, which means it is "buried" behind many other HL's in my storage area. My inventory sheet indicates it is flag# 2771 so it was made near the mid point of production. I don't recall anything special about it other than finding it on a dealer shelf for $49.95 when the secondary market was selling them for around $90. Deals like that always give you that warm and fuzzy feeling!

The #1978 water has a shiner finish and is some green mixed in it.. the #5061 water has a flat finish to it and then appears to be just one color of blue..

There are darker painted (high-lighted) stone bricks or blocks on all variations but all are different block patterns,,

I am still looking to acquire the other two variations!

I have #118 with:

Green roof
Grey below lantern room
Black ladder
Grey below water line
Green water
Made in Canada

Also have #3428 with:

Green roof
Same as rest of tower (tan)
Green ladder
Black below water line

The other thing that stands out to me is the #118 has a darker color with even darker individual bricks that stand out, where the #3428 has a light tan color with some individual bricks only slightly darker.

Bob, I only have one too and have no plans to collect any of the additional variations. The one I have is as follows:

#347
Lantern Room has a Green Roof
Blackish-gray below lantern room - looks like a thin black was painted over the base gray and a lot of the gray shows through.
Black color of ladder
Gray below water line - a little lighter but similar in look to the area under the lantern room
Green Water-green also under figurine.
Country - Canada
Sticker - 1" round Made in Canada (maple leaf)
