This place has foot tall reproductions for $149. Also check out their assortment of ashtrays from restaurants, hotels, and nightclubs of the past.

Now why in the world would somebody want such a thing?

The one shown on the website can be found cheaper on ebay. This is way over priced.

For the record, I do not sell these on ebay myself.

The version made by MK is very close to the original.

I like the Dempsey stuff.

I thought it was overpriced, too

I'd settle for a $20 resin replica or even ground coal dust mixed with a hardener; after all, it's going up on a shelf. The ashtrays are light years overpriced especially since they are made of plaster or glass which comes from sand and is one of the most abundant minerals on the planet. And the establishments listed are closed so there are no royalties to pay. MK, your Maltese Falcon is first rate; I never realized the original was heavy enough to be a doorstop. At 43 pounds that's all the higher I would put it.

The new issue of Via magazine says that John's Grill in San Francisco is selling a replica of the falcon for $100 in honor of the grills 100th birthday. http://www.viamagazine.com/top_stories/articles/maltese_falcon08.asp

That version also looks different from the Huston/Bogart film.

$149? I'd rather buy a hat.

I'm looking for a true replica of the Maltese Falcon as depicted in the 1941 movie of the same name. There a lot of replicas out there but non I have seen look like the actual bird. While searching Google for replicas I am constantly referred to this site as having the exact replica but I can't find it. I'm new to the Fedora Lounge. Can any one of you guys help me with this.

Thanks, ariescrown
