About Hummel's:Hummel's are made by Goebel, a company founded in Germany that started in the 1800s making fine porcelain figurines and decorative plates.

All Hummle's ARE made by Goebel, BUT NOT ALL "Goebel" figurines found in existence; however, ARE a HUMMEL, although I have found many people list items that say "Goebel" on them as a Hummel. This is in error.

Another Misnomer is that the signature on Hummel figurines is "M" (em) "I" (eye), NOT "J" (jay). Please note that it is a facsimile of her actual signature and her "I" appears as a "J"

This item IS an Authentic Hummel!!!!

As quoted from Wikipedia: Sister Maria Innocentia Hummel (MI Hummel 21 May 1909 - 6 November 1946) was a famous German Franciscan sister and artist. She is noted for her paintings which were the basis for Hummel figurines. Born in Massing in Bavaria, Germany, as Berta Hummel, was a devout Catholic and instead of the standard student housing, she chose to live in a Catholic residence run by religious sisters. Though her days were busy teaching, Hummel spent her spare time painting pictures of children. Franz Goebel, the owner of a porcelain company, was looking for a new line of artwork, and happened to see some of the postcars based on MI Hummel's drawings in a shop in Munich. Hummel agreed, mostly for its saving the employment of many workers, and the convent granted him sole rights to make figurines based on her art. (Wikipedia)
