I bought mine, same exact movie replica @$100 + S/H.
I stands proud on my wife's upright piano
(and I hope that our cat does not know it down).
In the past, I have displaced it along with my
Maltese Falcon fig pics (ebay) offerings...

Way underpriced.  I'll take a wild guess and say it goes for the $100,000 to 200,000 range.

Looks like you guys were WAY off!  Looks like it went for $4,085,000.   Yes, that's over four million dollars.  Wow!

It used to be said that cocaine was God's way of telling you that you were making too much money.... Now apparently it's 'memoribilia'.

Of course of all movie chatzkees, what's more iconic than that one, or Dorothy's red shoes from Wizard of Oz?

I am glad this thread started and more so when George posted picture of Maltese Falcon replica alongside the Maltese falcon plant.
I knew I had a Maltese Falcon plant but could not locate it. I had lost tags on a couple of plants (washed by rains) this year and one plant with washed out ID had leaves with reddish stem. This picture in George post will make it easy to identify next spring.
Thanks George/Bass.
