1920's Roadside Folk Art Photo- Statue of Liberty

Here's a nice shot of a Statue of Liberty folk art sculpture on top of the Liberty Cafe in St. Helens, Oregon. I only know this because apparently it is written on the back of the photo. I wish this shot was a little closer up so that we could get a better look at the face and body, but you can still tell that this was a spectacular sight! By the looks of it, the sculpture was at least about 20 ft. tall! Can you imagine? Wonder what happened to it...
