Sc. 5622 Mid-Atlantic Lighthouses on a 5"x7" Dragon Card reproducing a photo of the Twin Lights in Highlands, NJ. (The stamp says "Navesink.") The New Jersey stamp and two earlier stamps featuring the Sandy Hook Lighthouse (Sc. 1605 and 2474) are tied by the pictorial first-day postmark. Sandy Hook is about 5 miles north of Highlands, and both lighthouses helped vessels approaching New York City. Great for a lighthouses-, transportation- or New Jersey-on-stamps collection!
