Photographer: Roger W. Sinnott
Taken: April 28, 2011
Caption: First Minot’s Light
Additional Description: Perched on 10-inch-diameter iron columns, the short-lived first lighthouse on Minot’s Ledge is imagined in this postcard rendition from about 1925. (The card gives an erroneous date for when the lamp was officially lit; perhaps it refers to a test.)
