Received my Chatham GLOW a few weeks ago. This is not my favorite light that HL has produced but I must say that it is the most authentic as I remeber it. Again I know that GLOW's aren't the greatest topic on these forums, but I collect mainly New England Lights, and I just had to have one of these to include. What do you think of Chatham? Bert

I haven't seen it that I know of perse, but I bought the Nauset Beach piece and liked it; especially considering the age, availability and price of the original.

Sorry guys, I don't buy GLOWs. I'm sure Harbour Lights did a great job on this piece but you won't see me buying it. Bob

It seems a shame that HL made a GLOW of this light without getting the LE right....

You could say the same about Coquille River, OR, Mombo...HL should have finished out the 5500 pieces with an 8-sided figurine...the Chatham GLOW is a wonderful improvement over the homely (and often dusty and lonely) LE...

If memory serves me well, I believe that the builidng is backwards. The front is in the back and the back is up front. Bert

Just saw a post for the new piece and it appears that the bldg. is the same but the only difference I could see from the one angle of the picture was shorter upper windows, the two "objects" (perhaps porch lights?) either side of the door on the GLOW and a more pronounced paint job on the trim, and the lantern room seems taller on the LE.
