No Caption: View of the dilapidated Old Point Loma Lighthouse. An unidentified man sits in front of it. Lighted for the first time in 1855, this lighthouse sat on a high cliff above Point Loma near San Diego. Unfortunately, its high elevation resulted in fog or low-lying clouds often obscuring the light. The lighthouse was replaced by a new facility (Point Loma Light -- see 96-07-08-alb08-211 and 226) in 1891. The old lighthouse deteriorated over the years, until being restored in the early 1930s. It is now a museum.
Date: 1905
