Lighthouses at Light House Collectibles Welcome to Lighthouse Collectibles, a resource site for those interested in lighthouse novelties and other nautical decor and gift ideas. Light houses are a popular item of choice in the gift industry, and can be seen in items such as light house art, prints, figurines, photos, postcards, prints and other collectible gifts. Nautical souvenirs such as sea shells are also a popular collectible of choice, and a great gift to give to anyone who loves the sea! For hundreds of years, lighthouses have been guiding ships safely through their voyages by providing the necessary light needed to avoid danger. Lighthouses were built close to shore or on islands for use in the heavily traveled areas of the body of water close-by. Early lighthouses were fueled by wood and coal, and later started to use whale oil and eventually kerosene as a source of fuel. The wonder and awe of the lighthouse can be seen in many pieces of artwork, fables and, of course, collectible novelties. Advertiser Links
