Three falcons from the film are known to exist today. Two of them are made of lead, weighing in at a hefty 47 pounds each. The third statuette is in the Pugliese Collection, the only known Maltese Falcon made of resin. One of the lead statuettes (S.N. "WB 90067") is owned by a Beverly Hills collector and was exhibited in 1992 at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and at the Pompidou Center in Paris. The second (S.N. "WB 90066"), was formerly owned by actor William Conrad, who received it as a gift from Warner Bros. studio chief Jack Warner, and it was exhibited at the Disney M.G.M studios.
