The late Ken Black, founder of the Shore Village Museum in Rockland, Maine, and museum employee Bob Davis are shown in October of 1995 with a rare 6th order lens donated to the museum by the late Dane Alden. The Shore Village Museum was later moved and expanded to become the Maine Lighthouse Museum. Black, who was a retired Coast Guardsman was (and still is) known as “Mr. Lighthouse,” a name first coined to him and made national by our editor Timothy Harrison.
