OK, now that we have done the heaviest lighthouses, how about the lightest Limited Edition Harbour Lights..... no event pieces and no Harbour Lights Society gift lighthouses....

Let say you name the three lightest in your guess since most will probably guess one them right off the bat, so name your top three lightest...

Thumbnails count? Ornaments? Spyglass?

Limited Editon Lighthouses don't include those, John... No Open Editions either, spyglass are listed as Spyglass editions, ornaments are just that ornaments, Little Lights are Little Lights and thumbnails are thumbnails and mini's are mini's.....

So we are talking about from HL101 to HL284 with a few full sized limited Society lighthouses, full sized Christmas lighthouses and full sized Reunion lighthouses thrown in, although I don't believe any of them will come close to being one of the three lightest... I have found that most of the Christmas and Society lighthouses are amongst the heaviest produced by Harbour Lights.

If it is an individual piece I would say #101 Admiralty Head. If it could be single piece that is part of a set, I would say #242 Round Island Now, or #241 Miraflores Locks Panama Canal.

A set would be both lighthouses not just one if they are just one number... This all started as a result of shipping charges and weight, I would hope that a person wouldn't just ship one of a set. HL241 Panama Canal Set (Gatun Locks & Miraflores) and HL242 Round Island, MS were sold as a set and shipped as a set so I will weigh them as a set...

I kinda agree with John! Thumbnails and ornaments are limited, they only made a certain number! (LOL) laugh laugh

Anyway, I can't believe nobody has said the lightest! (I think anyway!) Here's my list, starting with the lightest.

1. Biloxi
2. Admiralty Head
3. New Canal

Randy, I think John's post was just one of clarification.. and my response was in answer to his questions...

An 8th lighthouse will be checking in at under one pound.

The Colossus of Rhodes comes in at a surprising 15 oz. It's among the tallest at 9".

Yeah, that one looks tall...but with a thin profile. I'm warming up to it, actually.
