We found this postcard in a collection of negatives from an old postcard company that has long been out of business.

It says only that the lighthouse is located in Memorial Park, Hennessey, Oklahoma.

Is the tower still standing? If it is not still standing, when did it come down? Why was this facsimile lighthouse built. Who built it? What were the "loud-speakers" used for? Who built it?

If any of our readers can help solve the mystery, please write to us at: Editor, Lighthouse Digest, P.O. Box 1690, Wells, Maine 04090.
