Beyond the usual models of lighthouses, light vessels, buoys, lenses and lanterns, the Lighthouse Establishment display at the 1898 Trans-Mississippi and International Exposition included some interesting items, such as a wick box, buffskins, cotton wipers, feather dusters, hand dust-brushes, boxes of diamond polish, sheets of emery cloth and a keeper’s library.
