The most photographed lighthouse in the United States. You can see why, so picturesque. So, mine is not the prettiest nor one of a few .. but it is my encounter on this beautiful night along with my own glorious sunset view. :)
Portland Head Light is a historic lighthouse in Cape Elizabeth, Maine. The light station sits on a head of land at the entrance of the primary shipping channel into Portland Harbor, which is within Casco Bay in the Gulf of Maine. Completed in 1791, it is the oldest lighthouse in the state of Maine. The light station is automated, and the tower, beacon, and foghorn are maintained by the United States Coast Guard, while the former lighthouse keepers' house is a maritime museum within Fort Williams Park.
These are some finds from a flea market. Most of them were mailed and are dated from a vacation trip in 1962. They are from the Northwest United States area.
