Description: Up for your consideration this Vintage (1940s) Goebel Hummel Barnyard Hero Figurine, in a very good condition - no chips or cracks noted. Figurine is approximately 5½" tall and 4½" wide. Marked underside with TMK1 "WG" (William Goebel) (1939-1949) incised Hummels Trademark, with TMK2 Full Bee stamped Hummels Trademark, pattern number 195,"Germany" mark and letters "© W. Goebel" stamped in blue. Hummel figurines (also known as Hummels) are a series of porcelain figurines based on the drawings of Maria Innocentia Hummel. The sketch art of Maria Innocentia Hummel began to appear in the 1930s in Germany and Switzerland, mostly pastoral drawings of children. After the end of World War II, the popularity of Hummel figurines grew as American soldiers stationed in West Germany began sending the figurines home as gifts. Nostalgia associated with the figurines and the U.S. soldiers buying them led to Hummel figurines becoming a popular collector's item. I found no significant condition issues with this little sculpture, but signs of previous use and ownership should be expected consistent with its vintage timeline and should be taken into consideration with age and ownership. Please check out all of the pictures and thank you for watching.
