Here we have a poster for the 150th Anniversary of the Coast Guard / Lighthouse Service in 1939. Ours is a reproduction from a high quality original. A little bit of background is in order. August 7, 1789 was when Congress approved an act to support lighthouses, beacons and buoys. The Lighthouse Service was the predecessor to several earlier agencies within the US Government that were responsible for lighthouses. The Lighthouse Service was dissovled in July, 1939, after FDR had approved a resolution recognizing the 150th Anniversary of the federalization of lighthouse responsibilities. All of our posters ship in sturdy shipping tubes, fully insured.

This poster is printed on heavy, 230 gsm (10 pt cover), premium matte art paper. Posters are centered on full sized paper to accommodate readily available frames or custom matting. The image size refers specifically to the artwork itself, not the size of the paper it is printed on. Therefore, the paper size is always larger than the image size.  All posters have a minimum 1/4" white border.
