Card inside of boxes reads….
“Key West Florida (1846)
Key West Lighthouse was an immediate replacement for a lighthouse destroyed by a devastating hurricane in 1846. For 50 years the new lighthouse performed its duties without incident until the land surrounding the lighthouse became more developed. Taller buildings were built obscuring the lighthouse and the tower had to be raised 20’ to maintain its efficiency. It was decommissioned by the Coast Guard in 1969. The Key West Art & Historical Society took it over as a museum. “
