Harbour Lights started off with pieces linked to US Postage Stamps when they launched in 1991.

They introduced the "Stamp Series" when the Postal Service came out with the Great Lakes Stamps.

They missed out on the Southern Lights series of stamps.

I don't think they'll miss the "boat" again and NOT tie-in with the upcoming Pacific Rim lighthouse stamps for 2007.

Since several of the lights in the new stamp set for 2007 have already been made as limited editions, I expect they'll make a series of "Little Lights" packaged together for 2007. That'll keep the cost of each item down and take less space for displaying them.

Questions are: will the sets be limited and numbered? Will they come in a fancier box? Will you be able to buy the set of five at or through the US Postal Service? Will long-time Harbour Lights collectors buy these? Can Harbour Lights actually ship them to dealers by UPS? (Think about it.)
