Adventure Bound was first issued in the United States in 1971. The imposing figurine is based on a drawing by Sister M. Innocentia, illustrating an old German fairy tale known as the Seven Swabians. It depicts seven young lads heading off on an adventure carrying one long spear with them. One lad carries a hammer and another, a small lantern. The original clay model was sculpted by Theo R. Menzenbach in the 1950s. The figurine was manufactured in limited numbers due to the difficulty in producing its intricate design. This figure is #347, TMK 6 (1979-1991) and is inscribed 1957 on the bottom.


This figurine is crafted in porcelain and hand painted with careful attention to details. It measures 7-1/2" tall x 4-3/4" wide x 8-1/4" long.
