To a couple of Loon's points, I think (and I've said it before) that HLs future lies in cultivating collectors who specialize in some subset of lights. A state, like Florida for me. A region, like Lake Ontario lights. Or lights that the tower has been climbed. Or lights with 2nd Order Fresnels. What ever.
I do collect a subset of lights; the ones that I have actually visited. However, I have seen lighthouses all over the country. The current issue scheme works well for me. There is usually one or two that interest me.

How many books do you own?
