I found other reference. Avi [Ara] Chekmayan, a New Jersey editor, actually found this resin Maltese Falcon at a flea market in 1991, although it took him five years to authenticate this bird to the auctioneers' specifications, because there was a lot of controversy about it.
Kam gjetur nje reference tjeter .Avi Chekmayan, nje botues nga Nju Gjersi, i cili faktikisht gjeti kete Skifter Maltez prej rrëshire tek nje treg vjetersirash ne vitin 1991, edhe pse iu deshen 5 vite qe ta vertetonte origjinalitetin e tij- tek drejtuesit e ankandit duke bere specifikime, sepse kishte mjaft polimika per kete.
