M.I. Hummel figurines began when a porcelain shop owner discovered the postcard images created by a Bavarian nun in 1934. Sister Maria Innocentia Hummel's religious drawings and paintings, mostly of children, were transformed into porcelain figurines by Franz Goebel. The figurines were well-liked in Bavaria and across Germany and grew in popularity when American soldiers brought them home after World War II. Hummel quality is amazing - and known around the globe as the best there is!
This is a very cute piece - it makes me want to go out and play! A boy stands with his foot on a ball and asks "Let's Play". He's so cute and has such a great look of hope on his face. Grab this one at a great price.
