They were common all over the US but I believe many were destroyed possibly for scrap during the war...

So cool. Sean, were they lit with Acetelene, propane or natural gas or? That AGA insignia looks similar to the modern AGA/Burdox logo... Are any of the original lighting works still present?

Wow. Thank you for sharing this find with us. Looks like you could almost hook up a bottle and fire it up.

There was a real nice one earlier last year in an auction in Canada I believe. Maybe you got that one.

I take it you're looking for the full four sided sign not just panels....I never even knew what a "lighthouse" was till I got this a few years ago....and I never see them around in California...I mostly just collect sports related signs...Got this one back east on eBay from redhotrelics....
