Does anyone know of a FDOS pictorial postmarks from any of the Lighthouse stamps town? I have a few covers from the previous lighthouse issues that I really like. I will be purchasing a sheet on my next payday. Too many stamps and not enough money.

How to Order the First-Day-of-Issue Postmark
Customers have 60 days to obtain the first-day-of-issue postmark by mail. They may purchase new stamps at their local Post Office, at The Postal Store website at www.usps.com/shop , or by calling 800-STAMP-24. They should affix the stamps to envelopes of their choice, address the envelopes to themselves or others, and place them in a larger envelope addressed to:
Gulf Coast Lighthouses Stamps
Postmaster
135 Main Street
Biloxi, MS 39530-9998
After applying the first-day-of issue postmark, the Postal Service will return the envelopes through the mail. There is no charge for the postmark. All orders must be postmarked by Sept. 24, 2009

I'm glad I'm not the only one to get the other confused. At least you don't get their mail mixed up

i picked up a sheet of the lighthouses yesterday....shades of Biloxi 1958...when a New York boy sees the cruddy waterfountain in the bus station and its got a sign Whites Only ! its an odd feeling...the races didnt mingle in my day and we probably didnt have any great love for each other..but we knew they were human beings !!
