The Gothamist reports how the streets of New York City will be invaded by forty-two 8½ foot reproductions of the Statue of Liberty to commemorate this year’s All Star Game at Yankee Stadium.  According to MLB, the statues will be covered in

“bold graphics and colors featuring each of the 30 Major League Baseball clubs, the Brooklyn Dodgers, the New York Giants, the American League, the National League, four All-Star statues and statues commemorating the final season of Yankee Stadium and Shea Stadium, an additional version for the host Yankees, and one to be determined to be painted by the artist as a surprise.”

For your delectation, here’s Lady Liberty resplendent in Yankee pinstripe:
