The Alcatraz Island lighthouse, located on the island of Alcatraz in California's San Francisco Bay, was built in 1909 just south of the original lighthouse (built in 1852-53) that was damaged during the 1906 earthquake. Attached to the base of the 95 feet tower was a commodious dwelling designed for three keepers and their families. The original lighthouse, which had been damaged during the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, was eventually torn down. This miniature model represents the lighthouse as it stands today, only the tall cement tower equipped with a modern beacon stands as a reminder of the keepers who served on the island for over a hundred years. This collectible item is one of a series of worldwide miniature lighthouse models produced by Spoontiques using cold cast resin and hand painted.
