Gimcracks, Geegaws & Other Dinguses Private Eye Collectables
This deluxe, full-size replica of the 1941 Maltese Falcon Prop Statue, cast in reinforced, hardened resin. stands 12 inches tall, weighs in at a hefty thirteen pounds, and comes in optional exclusive gift packaging, wrapped in Chinese newspapers and bound with twine in Captain Jacobi's La Paloma burlap sea bag, and comes complete with a personalized Certificate of Authenticity. Sure at somewhere around $180 or so, it's a little pricey, but considering one of two dinguses actually made for the movie -- and the only one known to have appeared on film -- sold in November 2013 for four million bucks at auction, you might call this a bargain.
