Tybee
Island, Georgia
Harbour
Lights #423
Signature Series #2
Ravaged by
storms, sabotage, and even an earthquake, Tybee Island Light has remained steadfast since
1867. Established before the Revolutionary War and rebuilt after the Civil War, the beacon
is still active. In 1999, thanks to Harbour Lights collectors and lighthouse lovers all
over the United States, a renovation project was completed that will help preserve this
beloved sentinel for generations to come.

Each Signature Series lighthouse has
a special label personally signed by Bill Younger. At the Re-lighting of Tybee Island in
February 1999, each Harbour Lights sculpture also had a unique label attached to the
bottom, as a special fund-raiser for the lighthouse.
The Tybee Island GLOW features 3 keepers houses, 4
outbuildings, 7 trees and the tower. It depicts the lighthouse in the daymark that
will appear when the renovation is completed.
