5103d. [stereoview] Long Point Lighthouse, Provincetown, Cape Cod . c.1890’s by G. H. Nickerson, Provincetown, Mass. Clear close images provide an unprecedented view of the second light station at Long Point. Image includes the 1 ½ story keeper’s dwelling with square brick light tower, fog bell tower, and more guarding the Provincetown harbor. In 1873, an inspector reported that “a new dwelling is a necessity… the entire structure is in danger of being carried off by a heavy storm.” $13,000 was appropriated for a new tower, keeper’s dwelling and fog signal. This new 38-foot brick lighthouse tower, painted brown, and a 1 1/2-story keeper’s house shown here were built in 1875. The 1,200 pound fog bell was installed at this time. Wonderful view is extremely clear and close, providing great detail. Such views of Long Point are quite difficult to find. (F-). $168.
