Description

Hummel figurines (also known as M.I. Hummel figurines or simply Hummels) are a series of porcelain figurines based on the drawings of Sister Maria Innocentia Hummel. Her art began to appear in the 1930s in Germany and Switzerland, mostly pastoral drawings of children. After WWII American servicemen stationed in Germany began to collect the figuries. Such is the origin of this trio which includes:


Girl with chicks -57/0. Likely produced in 1950; "Germany" imprinted without the Goebel stamp but with Hummel Bee trademark.


Wo bist du? Where are you -1997 427/3/0. Printed Goebel, Germany with Bee and copyright symbol.


Hummel Just Resting 112 3/0 Stamped Goebel W. Germany, issued 1938, copyright symbol. No Bee.

This is a Live Event Item.
