  • Yaquina Head Lighthouse (Oregon, USA)

    Our aggregation of lighthouse postcards includes a few, scattered around the world, where a great many years separate the first card from the most recent.  Yaquina Head is one of those.  This card was mailed in 2013 with four stamps and partial postmark, and happily the orange postal barcoding blends right into the orange background.  Grade: 2

  • Point Betsie, Michigan (USA)

    Full disclosure:  nowhere on this unused card does it name the exact lighthouse (Point Betsie), but the vague caption gave us enough clues that we were able to positively identify it through Google.  Built in 1858, by the way.  Grade: 1

  • Foreign Ships Arrive in Duluth-Superior Harbor – 1959 (USA)

    We put this card into “Minnesota” and not “Wisconsin” only because the harbor says “Duluth” first.  Not postally used, the card however has an inked notation on the back saying “The Duluth-Superior Light house on pier but not mentioned.”  Well … we sure do know that now.  Grade: 4

  • DPR Korea (set of four) (Maximum Cards)

    This is a set of four unused maximum cards from 2004, about as nice as any set of lighthouse postcards can be.  The captions are only in Korean, though, and we thought we would invest the time to see where these structures are, so we submitted the first card for translation.  “암 룡 단 등 대” comes back as “Only for Cancer, Kowloon”.   The next one (석군 도    등 대) said “Such act, even for”.   We dare not even try to translate the other two.  Grade: 1
