The head of the U.S. postal service resigned last week, after it was discovered that the statue of liberty commemorative stamped issued last year had (unknown to its designers)actually used a picture from the fibreglass replica in vegas. ::) ;D

original, from 1870's   :y




on display in Paris 1878, before being shipped to the States



the Vegas stamp one looks totally fake from the get go, the windows in the crown are obviously just painted black arches - cant believe anyone mistook it  :o
