Statue of Liberty souvenir replicas which are on sale on the government reservation at Bedloes Island were manufactured in das Vaterland.

Copeland in the form of a resolution passed by the National Executive Council of the Jewish War Veterans of the United States at a meeting held in New York City recently.
