Great American Lighthouses

The stamp shows Cape Hatteras Lighthouse.

Cape Hatteras Lighthouse is the tallest brick lighthouse in the United States. The familiar 200-foot structure with its black and white bands spiraling along its steep walls are easily recognized and grace many calendars and vacationer’s photograph albums.

The famous lighthouse was constructed in 1870 to replace a smaller one, built in 1803. It is a working lighthouse and its beacon of light can be seen as far as twenty miles out to sea. For over a hundred years it has served to warn ships of the dangerous, shallow sandbars called Diamond Shoals.
