Goebel M.I. Hummel # 110 (I Believe number is actually 110/1) "Let's Sing" - 3.5" Tall - Early Full Bee (TMK-2) with "©️WG" (TMK-1) - Stamped "Copr. W. Goebel" & "Germany" - Master Painter "V" (Karl Vogt) - Closed Edition.
HUM 110 – Let's Sing - TMK-2+1
Height – 3.5"
This hummel was originally modeled by Master Sculptor Reinhold Unger in 1938. There are three number/size variations, 110, 110/0 & 110/1. Due to the miniature sized base, the incised number is faded and unverifiable. I believe this example to be 110/1 because of the 3.5" height. 110/0 has a maximum height of 3.25" and solid number 110 has a height of 4" listed in all of the catalogs. This was my sole basis of determination. Please view pictures closely to assess for yourself. If indeed this is 110/1, as I believe it to be, the first available trademark is the Full Bee TMK-2, as shown here, along with the Early "©️WG" TMK-1 located above the Hummel signature. Clearly this is an early version, dating the figurine to circa 1950. "Let's Sing" sold for $6.00 on old 1955 price list! This is a closed edition. See below for the specifications/variations on this hummel:
• Has Full Bee Trademark (TMK-2) stamped in Blue on underside of base.
