Lighthouse Postmarks From Cuba

Mike DePaz sent in these three interesting postmarks from Cuba that he received from Luis Alberto Castro. The first one shows Punta Maya L/H located near the port of Matanzas. Next is Punta de Maternillos L/H located on the north east coast of Cuba on the Old Bahama Channel. Finally, we have a postmark that shows a lighthouse keeper lighting an oil lamp with a Fresnel lens in the background.
