Sometimes compared to it's distant cousin, The Colossus of Rhodes, Soldier's Point Lighthouse on Heebee Jeebee Island was quite an attraction for the locals. Brilliantly designed by the early shipwrecked visitors of the Island - out of hardened sand and seaweed - it was an engineering marvel until the restless tides eventually brought it down.
Yes, you are correct Roy, the image of the old lighthouse is rare. The old print could bring a tidy sum at auction! Thank you very much for this terrific piece of Heebee Jeebee nostalgia!
