Calling Sam Spade

OMG, the Maltese Falcon has been stolen! And Humphrey Bogart? Still dead. http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-falcon14feb14,0,790950.story?coll=la-home-headlines
Favorite quote:
"During the shoot of the 1941 film version starring Humphrey Bogart and directed by John Huston, plastic replicas were made after Bogart complained about the weight of the two original lead statues, 50 pounds apiece. One of the plastic models is at the Library of Congress."
