Last week Gothamist reported on Major League Baseball's plan to place forty-two 8-1/2 feet tall Statues of Liberty covered in the logos of past and present teams around New York City in preparation for the All-Star Game on July 15th at Yankee Stadium. As this is the final season for "The House that Ruth Built," the MLB brain trust figures this campaign will provoke excitement for the game and provide spinoff revenue in the form of 9-inch replicas that collectors willing to spend money on anything with their favourite team's insignia will purchase and quickly turn around on eBay.
