The other day, I felt like
Sam Spade, the private detective created by
Dashiell Hammett. In his novel,
The Maltese Falcon, made into a film by
John Huston. Sam Spade - played in the film by
Humphrey Bogart, encounters the
"Fat Man" and his dubious associates who are searching for a statuette of a falcon encrusted with jewels.
Well, I found it in the Central Bank of Peru in Lima!!!!
I should explain, though, that the bird in question is in the museum run by the Central Bank in Jirón Junín 781, which has exhibits from the different cultures that have existed in Peru, as well as a coin and gold collection and a collection of paintings. The museum is close to the Plaza de Armas in the centre of Lima.
