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.
Es biju atradis arī citu bildi, Avi [Ara] Čekmajans, Ņūdžersijas redaktors, atrada šo no sveķiem izgatavoto Maltas piekūna modeli kādā sīkumtirgū, 1991. gadā, taču tam bija nepieciešami pieci gadi, lai putnu atzītu par autentisku un tas atbilstu visām izsolīšanas prasībām, jo par tā autentiskumu bija lielas šaubas.
