This was one of those pieces where production was moved from Malaysia to China. Some changes were made in the mold as I recall, but I can't recall what the exact differences were.
I know another one in this group, Scituate had a change from a molded gallery railing to a metal one.
Can anyone recall the Cape Meares differences?

Besides the lantern room color and ventilator ball size, the vegetation on the China pieces have a LOT more violet and red flowers throughout the green vegetation on both sides of the lighthouse.

John You use to have a nice picture comparison of the variation on your old webpage. But it is now lost in cyberspace.
